IBJ55

I came into this thinking a pick was a pick. I was wrong. If you've been holding back on trying one of these, stop. The difference is real, and it's worth every bit of the investment. This is the kind of product that reminds you that details matter.

This pick is almost perfect it is a little on the smaller side of the jazz XL but the drilled holes make up for that. As of now it is my favorite pick. Ihave rececently bought a couple more blue chip picks one being the jazz XL just to compare to Andy’s pick this one being a tad thicker jazzXL 60. I am also trying the STP 60 just t try the different style. I know this that whatever one that I settle on or if I need 2 different types of blue chip picks I am pretty sure my search for the brand of pick I willl use is over. Bluechip picks are by far the best feeling and sounding picks I have found. Don’t give up by trying one there is size and shape that will suit you well f you look and if not they will build you one!

I know a lot of people would just say it’s an over priced guitar pick or “you paid how much for that?!” but until you try one, you just don’t realize how good it really is! I actually have 3 different kinds of blue chip picks now and it is by far the smoothest, easiest playing pick I’ve ever used! They glide across the string effortlessly. And as long as I’ve been using them, they still look brand new! They do not wear down no matter how long you use them! I will definitely be getting more in the future. Want to try the other shapes!

Just for level setting, I have been playing guitar, both acoustic and electric, for multiple decades, mostly in the Rock genre, and have done session work, have played live, and have been a teacher on and off for many years. Blue Chip picks are hands down the most incredible and amazing picks I have ever used, and I have tried them all. For the last few years, I have used Dunlop Max Grip Jazz 3 picks, which I really like, but was informed of Blue Chip, and I am a sucker for finding the best tools. I am truly amazed—and that is not an easy task!!! These picks are easily worth the $35 price tag in terms of the sound they create, the feel of the pick, and the longevity of the pick. You have to try one to believe it!!! I am sold—-I have both the IBJ 55 and the BC Jazz 60, and they are both BEYOND PHENOMENAL!!!! It’s unbelievable how long they last. For reference, I use a Dunlop Jazz pick for about an hour before I have to use a new one due to wear. The BC Jazz 60 has about 100 hours of play, and still feels new!! No joke!!! This company is a guitar players dream……thank you from the botttom of my soul to brother Mathew Goins and the Blue Chip Team!!!

Love this pick!

I used to think the shape, thickness, and to a lesser degree the material was all that really mattered. It's amazing how much difference the material, sharpness of the tip, and the edge bevel effect the tone. My BlueChip pick offers none of the clicky-ness of a hard plastic pick and none of the scratchiness of the faux tortoise picks. The tip is just sharp enough to provide a clear note but with the warmth and tone of a string plucked with a natural finger nail. A game changer when hybrid picking on acoustic and worth the investment. The IBJ55 is the exact size and shape as my favorite Pick Boy "Jazz" picks from the '90's.

I like the feel of the pick, and it is comfortable to play with, but the size is a bit smaller than I’m used to. I must have overlooked the product dimensions when I purchased, or maybe it wasn’t apparent/displayed. The pick seems very durable so far, which is very pleasing. It still seems incredibly expensive.

...but better. The tip is super buttery smooth. Awesome pick for sure.

Incredible. I (like a lot of people) saw the YouTube video and thought "how much better than a regular pick can they possibly be??". well - A LOT better lol. even unplugged, there is almost none of the "scratchy" noise when picking. The pick glides over the sting and helps make legato runs smoother. There is a noticeable difference in tone when playing clean or on an acoustic as well - a big enough difference that my wife could easily tell which pick was which. Been using Clayton Acetal picks for the last decade and I won't be going back. Have two of these now and will be buying more.
