1. LOVE MY CT55's!!

   Posted by Kevin McConnell on 27th May 2025

   Love my CT55 picks!
   I've been playing with heavy Ultem picks for many years, but recently started using the CT55's after a friend let me try one.
   While not a HUGE difference, there is DEFINITELY a difference, and as a guitarist, I need all the help I can get!
   And although on a fixed income now, I WILL replace my Blue Chip picks if I lose them!
   Single notes are cleaner and clearer, and the tone is more focused!

2. End of Searching .

   Posted by Michael Tulloch on 13th May 2025

   Just now taking up the Mandolin here. And I was having a problem holding the slippery picks I was trying , even the grip styles available. . I tried sanding them with sand paper etc., drilling holes....and not have any luck really . David Benedict suggested I try one of these , and I immediately liked it. Somehow they stay right where I hold them and I don't have to press too hard ....I can relax my hand and wrist and focus on my attack angle , bevel , pick patterns . Initially I had to get over the initial cost , ....that is until
   I realized they are worth twice the price. I like the CT-55 the best . Like I said , ......the search is over .! Very recommend for the beginner , from this beginner ( 1 month so far ).

3. Blue Chip CT 55 does not disappoint

   Posted by john cole on 13th May 2025

   I play a little mandolin and asked my friend who is a fine player what pick she used. She said the BC CT 55 and I immediately ordered one. I received it in about two or three days and have not stopped using it since. The tone it gets is great and it feels very natural in my fingers. Has it improved my picking ? Not sure but I do enjoy using it as I practice so…maybe !

4. what Bevel?

   This is the CT 55 with no bevel. Sounds great and makes tremolos easier.

5. Tried the Others ….I’m Back!

   Posted by Jerry Martin on 24th Mar 2025

   Been using BC for about 10 yrs now, heard about another maker and decided to give them a try. Pretty good picks , and about the same price. I found they wore quickly, became scratchy after a short time. Tried using them for a couple months, then pick up my old BC picks one day recently and “Walla , the smith sound and speed was back. I have never found a better pick and I have tried many others over the years. I have been using my CT55 and TAD 50 now for a couple of months and regret wasting time and money on the others. I am back for good!!!! Jerry

6. Favorite flat-picking pick

   Posted by Unknown on 20th Feb 2025

   Great for speed, tone, and durability! By far my favorite pick for bluegrass and old time playing on my Martin dread.

9. Best pick I've used since taking up mandolin.

   Posted by Jimmy Mahone in Seneca, South Carolina on 15th Jan 2025

   Played rhythm acoustic guitar for over forty years and mandolin for almost half of that. The CT-55 glides across the strings with an unique feel that truly excels for speed and smoothness. Some pros with whom I connect on the Web say they virtually last forever, too. Truly a great product, worth the price.

10. better than tortoise

    Posted by William VanVugt on 8th Jan 2025

    As a bluegrass flat picker of about a half a century, who has owned pics of all kinds, including the ones that should never be used that is turtle
    
    I can say that blue chip pics and for me, especially the CT 55 are the best
    The smoothest
    They seem to be self lubricating and then wear out
    
    And they don’t warp. Like some other synthetic brands.
