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.

Let this pick do the work!
Posted by Grant Ziolkowski on 18th Jun 2012
A brand new one of these and you realize what you've been missing. Sit back, loosen up and let this pick do all the work for you. When using the CT55, it takes half the effort to get the same speed and tone as you'd have to dig in and think too hard about with any other pick.

Just the right size.
Posted by Billy Brown (Kilmaine Saints) on 27th Apr 2012
I use this on both my tenor banjo and Irish bouzouki and it's great! I decided to try this after having lost my TP-1R 50 and TPR 50 (left them on the mic stand at a very large festival and didn't realize it until I unpacked a few days later).
This will be my pick of choice from now on - really like the thickness and the bevel is superb.

The best electric guitar pick ever!
Posted by SJK on 31st Mar 2012
While I enjoy listening to CT I am a guitarist and find the CT55 to give the fattest tone, fastest release and easiest to hold of any pick in 32 years. I also like it on my Martin D-18A for flatpicking. I have two rosewood Martins that I sometimes go for a TAD50 or 40 with for a brighter tone, but for the last 17 months I have been using the same CT55 for everything! And it still has quite a way to go.

Worth the money

I hesitated on getting one of these with the cost, but I am very glad that I did, best feel out of any pick I've tried.

Its all true
Posted by Nigel Bullock on 23rd Oct 2011
Just got my CT55, and I love it, although I don't sound quite a good as Chris Thile (yet)! this pick definitely gets a better tone out of my Mandolin. Wouldn't hestitate to recommend them, I know they may not be cheap, but when you have paid £2k for a Mandolin, was another £30 to make it sound as good as it can be!
