Hmmm... just taken delivery of a set of these (and a Jim Dunlop thumb pick).

I'll be testing them out tonight and I'll report back.

I decided to get these after breaking a nail building some flat-pack stuff a couple of weeks ago and realising how much I rely on my nails when playing. I like the idea of the open design to keep the "feel".
