Excellent Thumbpick
Posted by Paul on 9th Aug 2020
Great tone and very comfortable. I've used Nationals for guitar and blue Hercos on steel for decades. This pick replaces them both. It feels lighter on the thumb than a National but has beefier and clearer tone. Really brings out bass strings. Also does flat picking runs on a guitar nicely... it's smooth and doesn't catch. Going to have to buy another as a backup!

Great Tone and Very Comfortable
Posted by Banjo Saint on 19th Jul 2020
The blue chip thumb picks are both capable of producing beautiful tone without pick noise as well as being very comfortable at the same time. While I have not played every thumb pick available in over 40 years of playing, I have played most of the popular picks and have used the blue chip since they came out. Given what we spend on a banjo, lessons books and the time we invest to improve our playing, the blue chips are a deal.

Great sounding!
Posted by Daniel Young on 2nd Jul 2020
I ordered a JD thumbpick and l like it but the blade was longer than I prefer. I special ordered one with a shorter blade and it is awesome! It’s comfortable and doesn’t turn or slip. I’m used to tight picks the cut off the blood to my thumb. This pick stays wear I put it and it’s very comfortable and stable. The guys at BlueChip know what they’re doing!

I was curious...
Posted by Brian on 5th Jun 2020
The pick material clearly has delivered for a lot of musicians, but I was concerned about the metal band.
It turns out that it works really well - It’s the only thumb pick I’m using. I am very pleased with this product!

Great Pick May Require Some Adjusting to Fit
Posted by Shawn on 3rd Feb 2020
I normally wear a Large National Thumbpick which fits my thumb perfectly. The Large BCT are too loose for me, so I order the medium BCT and adjust it to properly fit my thumb. It's pretty easy to adjust with some needle nose pliers so it fits your thumb and doesn't slip.
I prefer the sound of the BCT over the softer National thumbpicks.

It's a great sounding Pick.
Posted by Kim Stewart on 3rd Apr 2019
This is a great sounding pick. Feels good except for I have to jam it on tighter than I was expecting so it doesn't spin, so it cuts off some circulation like most thumbpicks.
I like the fact that the band it doesn't hook accidently on any of the strings. I highly recommend it, I am glad I purchased it.

Excellent
Posted by Reuben Mezrich on 29th Mar 2019
I've been looking for a new thumb pick to replace the National I've been using for a while..my problem with this and previous thumb picks is that it would not stay in place and sometimes the bottom would catch on a string.
This new pick from Blue Chip fits comfortably, doesn't move and has nothing to catch onto the strings. Additionally, the length of the pick matches what I had on the National so I didn't have to adapt to a new pick. This is in distinction to metal picks I got from Deering, which were much shorter.
The Blue Chip are pricier, but I think well worth the extra money
It may be just mental, but I think my playing has improved with these new picks

Mostly satisfied
Posted by Kerry Adams on 18th Jan 2019
I enjoy the picks and think they are great. The issue I had was with the website and placing my order for the CT 55 picks. I wanted to have them personalized for gifts. I was sure that one of the picks was to have Kerry on it and the other Breezer. When they arrived, they both had Kerry Breezer on them which is not what I wanted. When I called customer service, I was assured it was my mistake. I guess I have to write it down as an expensive mistake.

great customer service
Posted by Amy on 8th Jan 2019
I bought this for my boyfriend who is a bluegrass player. He already had the flat pick to go along with it. He was thrilled to receive it which, in turn, thrills me!
The customer service was great- there was a mistake on the order that I noticed after I placed it so I emailed them and they straightened everything out for me!
