Product Description
The CT55 is a pick custom designed by Chris Thile for his personal use. It is very similar in size and shape to our TAD line of picks. However it is only manufactured in 55/1000 of an inch(1.4mm) thickness and has a custom bevel per his specifications. This is the exact pick that Chris Thile is currently using. See his thoughts on this pick on our users page.
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.

Love the CT 55
Posted by stacey baker on 11th Nov 2020
This pick met all the reviews I read over the internet. I have a pre-1920 A4 and F4. It has enhanced the sound of both, especially the F4. Well worth the price, one just has to be careful not to loose it!!

Great mandolin pick
Posted by Brooklyn girl on 4th Nov 2020
This is very expensive for a pick, so it took a leap of faith to try it. However, it is so comfortable and plays so well and feels so good in my hand, I bought a couple more as a brown pick can easily get lost. (Suggestion: add some fun colors.)

Best pick I've ever used! You can definitely tell a difference in the way your instrument sounds. Will never use another pick. Definitely recommend it.

I got a Blue Chip Pick
Posted by Denise on 2nd Sep 2020
I want it to be blue for some reason. I made a little leather pouch to keep it safe. I always wanted my own. I will name him George and I will love and pet him and squeeze him...

Best pick I have found
Posted by Aviv Naamani on 31st Aug 2020
I have to use large triangular picks because I have fingernails for fingerstyle guitar. The CT 55 gives me the best balance between control and tone that I have found. I can use it for jazz on my archtop or Bluegrass on my dreadnought. Slightly heavier picks are a bit unwieldy for me and the lighter picks are lacking in tone to my ears.

Incredible feel and gliding playability!
Posted by Ken Stewart on 20th Aug 2020
The CT 55 feels great between my thumb and index fingers, glides smoothly across the strings of my acoustic & electric guitars, and produces an unparalleled tone. Treat yourself, you deserve it!

Like my dad always said you’ll never listen to me try it for yourself
Posted by stephen gassert on 10th Aug 2020
I have heard about this pic before I also heard about the price tag and Was very hesitant one day for some reason I decided to purchase one curiosity mostly I do a lot of playing and writing on acoustic instruments and wow I have been a musician for 35 years and have used many different styles of pics but wow I have been nothing less than impressed I feel the sound it really is hard to describe but once you feel one play one and hear one I am sure you will be sold I have not been disappointed and within all reality it really probably was the cheapest thing I ever did buy for my guitar since then I have purchased at least five for myself and friends

Delightful picks!
Posted by Justin on 6th Aug 2020
I recently bought a CT 55. This was a big change for me. I have been using Jazz iii style picks for a dozen years. With the CT 55 I feel like the world is opening up for me.
