I am hoping to tap the collective wisdom of UU to help me with a new challenge to my uke playing.
A few months ago, I sustained a minor injury to my fingernail. The injury was minor, but the pain and damage was major. Of course it's my right index finger. This week, the nail finally gave up the ghost and what I'm left with is a mess. It hurts to strum with and sounds terrible picking.
Does anyone have a suggestion for a fingerpick that would allow me to pick and strum with my index finger until the nail grows back? I used to have metal fingerpicks in my guitar days, and they would work for the picking portion, but there wasn't anything on the top that would help cover the nail in order to strum.
I may order several, and try them out in order to find works well. Any suggestions are appreciated.
Thanks,
Nick
