Product Overview

This is our JD Crowe thumb pick in a size large. This pick was designed by JD Crowe and constructed to his very exacting specifications. The BCT-JDL is the exact pick that JD uses. The pick bears JD's initials on the inside between the rivets. 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 thumb pick available.

Size compares to a standard large thumb pick of any brand.

    Great thumb pick

    Posted by Michael Gross on 25th Apr 2014

    Makes great clean sound striking strings. Put it on and forget about it--stays put on my thumb, most comfortable thumb pick I've used, does not get in the way. I couldn't ask for more.

    Superior Thumb Pick

    Posted by Wayne Thompson on 20th Feb 2014

    Unbelievable fit and performance. Doesn't slide around on the thumb and totally eliminates the chafing sound produced by other picks. Provides a tremendous boost to the sound quality and playing confidence.

    A top quality thumb pick

    Posted by Jim Armstrong on 3rd Feb 2014

    I have used a number of different thumb picks since learning to play the banjo. Other plastic style picks require alteration, either bending to shape or trimming, to keep the pick on your thumb, and to prevent the back of the pick catching a string. The Blue Chip JD Crowe model pick is a top shelf product, and when it arrived, it required no bending or shaping. It fits my thumb and my picking style. I highly recommend the JD Crowe thumb pick for sits quality, shape, and tone.

    T'here's nothing better.

    All that has been said about this pick is true. How it fits, how it sounds, the feel, everything. I cannot add any more except to say that it seems to glide over the strings. It has just enough friction to sound the note, but is slick enough to not slow you down. Ease of play is the reason I use it. The flat picks also are a dream.

    My favorite thumb pick. I'm used to having to file them down but not this one. It stays on, too! Thanks, guys.

    Best Pick Ever

    Posted by Rodger Reed Sr on 2nd Nov 2013

    This is the best pick I have ever used. It increased the sound volume output of my banjo by 1/3. The tone is a little brighter than I like but it is still very good. I recommend it to anyone.

    My forever thumb pick

    Posted by chip quarles on 17th Oct 2013

    I have always used any random disposable thumb pick until getting a blue chip. For tone and comfort bluechip is second to none.
