Inspired by Andy Wood, the IBJ55 pick is larger than a regular Jazz pick, and smaller than a Jazz LG. It has a universal rounded bevel and comes with 6 pre-drilled holes in the center. This pick is 55/1000 of an inch(1.4mm) thickness. All of our picks are professionally machined, hand beveled, and laser etched.
Quarters, Nickels and Dimes, if included in the pictures, are for size reference only. They are not etched on the picks or included with the sale. To use this reference, please place a coin on your current non-Bluechip pick and then compare to the pictures of our picks with coins on top of them. This will help you choose the pick that is closest to your current favorite size and shape.

So many little things with this little thing.
1) Want to change your playing? Try a different pick.
2) Want to play faster? The holes cut down on wind resistance.
3) "Tougher than leather"

I used jazz 3 picks for a while. They always felt to small when I would play fast high energy music, so I would switch to the large ones for that. I love that this pick's size is right in the middle. I also sweat a lot and get carried away sometimes when I play, so I like the holes. Of course the best part is how the pick feels and reacts to the strings, butter.

I've tried many kinds of picks. Many.
Blue Chip are the best.
I love the TD60, TD80, Jazz LG 60, Jazz LG 80.
This one : IBJ55 is amazing: great sound, and easy to pick with and so comfortable to hold.
Give it a shot.

It's just right, the offspring of a Jazz III and a Wegen BigCity.

Great pick! I use this one for acoustic and electric guitars.
Allows me to play really fast.

I have struggled with picks for many years.
They have alwAys sounded a little clicky & audible on contact !
They also don’t feel great I’m my hand !
I have several go too brands but after trying one of these
I am sold! My only fear is losing it & having to order another!
I guess I’ll have to order another

Tone junkies get it; once in a while comes along a brush to the tone palette that is just brilliant. The IBJ 55 brings to my playing a fresh dimension of versatility and tone like a breath of clean air. As a BlueChip enthusiast, especially of the large jazz picks, I hold this new pick up as my new favorite for several reasons. I love the round beveled edge; I've never had one and it rocks. The holes are a game changer! Tones generated when I play with this pick are special, they keep me seeking and satisfied all at once.

I always buy the TD45 so when I bought my latest one, I added this one to the cart just to try it. I love the holes. Would be great to have that as an option for the TD model.

I know this sounds weird, but let it warm up for a few hours and then start playing. At first it felt weird on the fingers and I moved it about a lot trying to find the best shape for it. Afterwards I took a break and came back in a few hours. Picked up my guitar and without even noticing it was pouring through the strings. I love it, I had my second thought because I always believed "oh it's just a pick" but I am eternally grateful to 5 watt world for mentioning this company. I have one pick to rule them all.

I have played for 35 years and no single piece of equipment has had more of a positive effect on my playing than this pick. It has broken things wide open for me. My playing is more accurate and fluid than it has ever been. I know it seems like a lot of money, but it is so worth it.
