This is our thumbpick in a size medium. It is constructed using a custom designed stainless steel band and a 50/1000 of an inch(1.25mm) thick BlueChip pick. These picks are laser etched, professionally machined, and hand beveled to create the best thumbpick available.
Size compares to a standard medium thumb pick of any brand.

I better not lose this thing, because at these prices it'll be painful to replace. I was leery at first because there is no sizing guide other than S, M & L. So I got the medium. When it came, it seemed a tight fit. The steel band admits a bit of adjustment though, and after a couple of tweaks, one with a cautious use of pliers, I got a perfect fit. I still use a dab of pine pitch on the inner surface where it mates to my thumb to increase the grab. I'm adjusting nicely to it now. I had been using the Fred Kelly speed picks, and I still like them, and can use them. I do like the Blue Chip better though, due to its action against the string. It is the best I've found, I'll grant you that. It's also the most expensive, but for me it is worth it to find a thumb pick that totally overcomes the deficits of the cheapees. If it weren't for the pine pitch though, I'd still be dissatisfied.

This is the best thumb pick out there and has spoiled me from using anything else. The only negative thing about it is the price for one. It should be in the 20-25 range and not 40. I also use bluechip picks for guitar and mandolin.
