I tried these and much preferred the dunlop tortoiseshell ones. The only issue with those is I was shredding them in no time. Eventually changed back to flat picks but can still use a thumbpick on acoustic just fine.

Mike Dawes is. Makes them sound incredible.



And here's one just for you, Jeremy.
Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.
