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.

I have four of them, so I must really like 'em!
Posted by Philip Rundall on 4th Jan 2016
I used to use the TD-60 when playing the guitar but switched to the CT-55 when I bought one for my mandolin. I'm enjoying the increased size and the warmer tone that I can achieve with it on the guitar, especially.

The Pick That Changed My Guitar Playing Forever
Posted by Carlton Jones on 24th Dec 2015
When I first picked up a Blue Chip pick, it did not hit me right away. But, after playing with it for about 5 minutes, I realized it was so very special. A 55 is thicker than I typically played with, but this pick just glides off the strings like glass. When I go back to my previous pick, the difference is astounding. Nothing compares to this pick. I just love the CT 55. I have given them as gifts to other players, and converted everyone that I gave one to, including the incredible song writer and player, Wayne Watson. Thanks you for an incredible pick. I never knew a pick could change the way I played so much. The most empty feeling I get is when I lose one (I've only lost one!). I've gone back to gigs the next day to find it. Found one in a gravel parking lot. Incredible pick!!

The best. Period.
Posted by Alex on 7th Dec 2015
It's hard to say enough great things about BlueChip and the CT-55 in particular. I've ordered many of these picks over the past two years and have been astounded each time by the consistency and quality. If you're thinking about buying a new guitar, I would say wait and get a BlueChip first - your sound will improve dramatically for a fraction of the price!

Absolutely my favorite pick!
Posted by Dave Morrison on 4th Dec 2015
Great pick, my #1 choice for back-up guitar in an oldtime band! The sound coming from my guitar seems 'cleaner,' with less pick noise. The pick seems to come off the string quicker and with less effort moving to the next position, so I feel as if my runs have become more complex and confident.
The thumbpick is also an improvement over previous choices. The pick feels more secure on my thumb, and the rounded tip is a better profile for my fingerpicking style.
Great products!
