As Mycroft mentioned, grinding down the picking blade length on a thumb pick can be helpful, though I haven't had to do this with the Fred Kelly Slick Picks.

Thanks Glenn, very helpful. Your playing, and arrangements, are superb, and I've watched many of them. The thumbpick is feeling better all the time - I did trim it down quite drastically, so I don't have to keep my thumb so high and its been an easier transition from no pick.
