These are now perfect for me. They were almost perfect before but the pick used to slide around too much. They seem to have taken this on board and while the pick is still adjustable it is much tighter in the groove so does not slip around anymore. At last the pick I've always wanted!!!
The sound quality is lovely and warm but they do wear down quicker than I would like but I can live with that.

I never got along with thumb picks all that well. The thing is, you need a thumb pick if you are to use finger picks. I have found that Black Mountain thumb picks are easy to use, and you can strum with them too, so they open up an area of technique. For plain thumb picking though, I use the Bumblebee every time now. The acoustic guitar is loud and clear, the picking is relaxed and accurate, the tone of the guitar is maximised.
These picks have an adjustable angle. I glue mine very slightly off-straight. They sit well on the thumb with a small strip of Nexcare Absolute Waterproof Foam tape over the thumb nail and are totally comfortable.
Far from being an occasional necessity, thanks to the Bumblebee I now find that using a thumb pick is the default set-up for fingerpicking the acoustic guitar.
It just so happens that Eagle Music sells these little wonders at a favourable price and supplies them very promptly.
