Product Description
This is our dobro/resonator thumb pick in a size large. This is a slightly thicker blade design as compared to our banjo picks to withstand the more strenuous use on a dobro. It is constructed using a custom designed stainless steel band and a 60/1000 of an inch(1.50mm) 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.

Best Thumb Pick Ever
Posted by Tim Wint on 28th Dec 2019
I have been using the same pick for about 5 years now. It is incredible! No visible wear and fits perfectly. 4-5 hour sessions and I never even feel it. I play Dobro and I use the thumb to really dig in when I need some volume. It never has failed me. I'll use it I hope forever.

Great fit, great product
Posted by Blaine Koonce on 27th Nov 2019
I got tired of the tight fitting Nationals and Dunlops causing my thumb to go numb. This pic stays in place without the thumb clamp feeling Love it.

Great Pick
Posted by Tracy Homan on 4th Oct 2019
I love this pick.....It is a bit harder to keep on than a plastic but I have been getting better at holding it when double picking on the bass string. I will not go back to plastic.

Blue Chip Thumb Pick
Posted by Phillip Roettjer on 8th Feb 2019
I am very happy with the Blue Chip thumb pick. I use it for playing my 5 string banjo. I had been using a metal Propik for some years. The Blue Chip pick is more comfortable.

Comfortable fitting thumb pick
Posted by Bryan Baum on 25th Dec 2018
Like others, I also went through plastic thumb picks. Heard great things about the BlueChip picks and tried one. Loved it - comfortable fit, smooth action across the strings, solid sound. Tried both the short and longer versions (JD-L and 1L); seem to like the longer one a bit better. Exceptional quality and sound. Well worth the cost. Paired with the Shelor finger picks, you can't go wrong.

Always fits, just right
Posted by Larry on 23rd Apr 2018
Great fit, amazing tone and impressive durability. I can get the bright notes and the round mellow full sounds with just a slight change in position on both the banjo and dobro. I have tried many thumb picks. None compare. They are worth it!

Great action
Posted by Bryan Baum on 18th Oct 2017
Went through a lot of plastic thumb picks and then heard about these Blue Chip picks. Tried one of these and also a JD version. I like both but the 1L seems to have a stronger brighter sound. I like both of them. Can't find a better thumb pick!

Worth every penny
Posted by Bill Jaynes on 11th Oct 2017
I'm not a dobro player with a life time of experience. Guitar is my main instrument so I finally listened to dobro players who DO have a lifetime of experience after trying several other options for thumb picks. I'll leave all of the others in a drawer now. I should've listened in the first place. Yes, it's a lot of money for a pick but it's worth every penny. It has an elegant feel and great, smooth attack. Large blade size took a little bit of getting used to but worth the small amount of time it took. GREAT product!!

Re: bright clear tone
Posted by Bryan 'Buzzy' Baum on 24th Sep 2017
I've been trying to find the right thumb pick and have gone through a pile of different types. I follow the advice of a bass player friend of mine, who said not to worry about hitting the strings hard - they won’t hit back. Guess I’m a bit hard on thumb picks. After doing some research and sending emails to the good folks at BlueChip, I got one each of the 1-L and JDL thumb picks and really like them both. They both fit perfectly and don't slip, and the action is very smooth. The JDL is not as bright as the 1-L, that is, the sound is a bit more rounded. On most songs this is perfect. There are some songs that work better with a strong bright sound from the thumb. Just an overall amazing thumb pick.
