Formerly known as the ProPik Metal/Plastic Thumbpick
This is the thumbpick that started it all. The original!
The distinctive non-slip open band design won't loosen or turn on thumb while you play and fits securely without being too tight.
When the pick feels too tight or loose around your thumb, simply expand or contract the thumb pick's wrap for the best fit. Adjustments are made quickly and easily without heat or tools.
Smooth-wearing plastic tip for a noiseless, pure tone and double riveted for extra durability.
Price is per pick.

Fingerpicks
ProPik fingerpicks are designed to be completely adjustable, so it is one size fits all. We also offer a Small & Medium line of picks, specifically designed for players with smaller hands.
Thumbpicks
When it comes to thumbpicks, most players will use medium or large thumbpicks, depending on the size of their hands and again, these are adjustable to you and your style. Many average size players even prefer using Large thumb picks and adjusting them down.
Nickel
Nickel is the most popular choice and is close to the brightness of stainless steel, but just a hair warmer. Many people prefer nickel because they are more adjustable than steel, which by its nature is much harder to adjust.
Brass
Brass is the warmest of the 3 metal choices.
Stainless Steel
The brightest of the three metals offered (stainless steel, nickel, brass). Due to the way they are manufactured and buffed to a high sheen, there is also less drag on the string, thus producing less pick noise and accents the brightness further.
Blade Type
#1 blades are the most narrow and #3 blades are the widest. The #1 and #2 blades are the most popular, with the #2 being a hair more popular.
Blade Angle
Over the years, players have made all kinds of alterations to their picks (and their technique) to make them work better. Angled blades allow you to hit the strings squarely with minimized finger movement, so you get a boost of tone, speed, volume, and reduced pick noise.
