A guitar thumb pick is a device you put over your thumb that acts like a guitar pick but for your thumb. Thumb picks give you a sharp, percussive loud sound from the guitar. Thumb picks are often used in finger style playing or with Travis picking techniques .
A lot of the time, when you’re finger picking a melody, the notes your thumb hits are not as prominent and they’re a big more difficult to hear among the notes on the higher strings. Using a thumb pick solves this problem.
There is so much to learn with thumb picks, so don’t miss this one!

My problem is the picks either slip off my thumb or they are so tight they stop my circulation?
Thanks for the tips – my poor thumb is getting bruised ????. Found that the 1st thumb pick to be way too long. Glad to know there's a variety out there and I'll find or whittled down one who are more natural feel. Cheers from Seattle! ????
Brilliant. Thank you
Ive been playing austrias for some rime now without a thumb pick but reacently ive bought a thumb pick and it seems like it is going slower than usual
Great video! Wonderful, insightful. I use the Thumbpicks from Black Mountain. Have you ever heard of them? I use the thumb pick because one of my guitar heroes, Johnny Winter, always used a thumb pick. Thank you for posting this.
This was very helpful. Thank you!
I angled my thumb such that the nail will hit the string..???? such that I can do thumb slap when I need to..
Great, love to learn lots of thumbpicking. Thank you
Your a great teacher and a great player!

I have been doing fingering. Few days ago I took out my thumb pick that bought years ago and never used. It sounds louder, clearer than using thumb. In addition, I use less force to pluck the bass strings. I love thumb pick now. It does make the difference.
Excellent. .just answered my question…Thank you…Never much for picks…now that I am getting better.. playing more bass lines with my "SORE thumb" Figured I'd DEVELOP with a thumb pick and forget about flat picks ENTIRELY
1:50 I preferred it without the thumb pick
My nails are brittle. Vitamins do not help. I need finger picks.
What song at 3:10?
This is great, I can still bite my nails and get a clear sound ????????
Gary answers my questions and I will use one from now on. Great instructor!
I don't get how to tap with a thumb pick on sixth string.
These guys are a ripp off
