A pick for stringed musical instruments comprising a pick head 10, pick face 11, upper striking surface 12, pick ears 13, pick neck 14, pick body 16, pick arms 18, pick tail 20, and click muffling and pick arm restraining material 22. Said pick is worn around the distal phalange of the fingers or thumb such that said pick head is worn over the nail. Said pick head can be bent and shaped to have a desired curvature or to follow the curvature of said nail. Said pick tail acts as a counterpressure to the upward pressure which occurs on said pick head during the musical function called an upstroke, thus preventing said pick head from lifting excessively away from said nail. The portion of said pick head that extends beyond the fingertip can be adjusted, even during the playing operation, by sliding said pick further in or out along said distal phalange. Said click muffling and pick arm restraining material is capable of being used to muffle sounds produced between plural picks and to restrain said pick arms from substantially spreading apart, thus preventing said pick head from lifting excessively away from said nail. Said pick can be used in the same manner as a human nail, plectrum or a sitar-type pick. Said pick can be used on a variety of types of strings such as steel, nylon, gut or wound strings.
