Good for playing without nails, but requires extra attention while playing.
I bought these to try out playing finger-style without nails, since my nails are not always in the best condition, or in case I need them short for some other activity/sport. They mostly do the job but for anyone just wishing to try these out, here's my experience:
- They kinda made my fingers feel fatter. I have to pay extra attention to keep my plucking fingers apart, so they don't impede each others' movements. So my hand doesn't really feel relaxed with these on.
- When the picks touch already ringing strings, they make unpleasant twangy ringing sounds before the pluck starts (audible in the demo video on the YouTube channel of Fred Kelly Picks). I have to take care to start the pluck from the flesh of my finger to mute the string shortly before the pluck to prevent this, which is a bit more difficult with the picks but happen naturally while using nails.
- I bought "L" size, which fits my middle and ring fingers fine, but is a bit large for my index finger, wish they were sold separately so I could mix and match different sizes. The demo video suggests it might be possible to adjust with hot water, but haven't tried it.
Hope fully these are things that can be accustomed to, we'll see

The most nail like feel
Those picks are incredible, obviously nails are the best but this is amazing solution for when your own nails ( or gel nails) are out of question.
