1. Solid Pick So For

   Posted by Zach on 10th Dec 2020

   Because it's the thinnest pick size sold here, and because it has a pointy shape, I chose to get this for the classical mandolin work I do. Honestly, the very small area takes some getting used to, but it doesn't slip out of my grip once I do get it set right. I'm also glad I don't have to sharpen my pick every time I play now. If I were to go back, though, I probably would have gotten the larger one.
   
   All in all, it lets me play fast and doesn't wear out, so I'm happy I have it.

2. Even Better Than Expected

   Posted by Todd on 16th Mar 2020

   To get more 'twang' out of my guitar I pick/strum toward the bridge side of the strings (need durable material with a good gripping surface). I also play hard, snappy rhythm guitar (need a little bit of pick flex), but at times I need the fast alternate picking and string jumping precision of a stiff, pointy jazz pick. I was a sworn Eric Johnson Jazz iii user, which seems to have a tiny bit more flex than the standard red Jazz iii, but I was tired of having to toss them out after a day or two of use. I burned through bags of them. The BC Jazz 35 outperforms the EJ Jazz iii in terms of grip, durability, and tone--it's even brighter sounding than the EJ iii without the irritating scratchy sound that develops with nylon Jazz iiis as the tip abrades with use. If you're a Jazz iii user and you're on the fence, get a Blue Chip. You will never go back.

3. Great Pick

   Posted by Rob on 7th Jun 2018

   This is my first BC pick and it's great. The tone is bright and the pick is fast, and I can tell it will last a while. Can't recommend these enough

4. Don’t question the price

   Posted by Reed Sherar on 3rd Jan 2018

   I’m not sure what kind of mojo or magic these folks have but I love it. I used to use Dunlop Eric Johnson/Jazz III’s. I will never use anything but BC from now on. The pick is perfect thickness and the tone is unbelievable. It magically bonds with your thumb and finger so you don’t have to chase it or reposition. Do yourself a favor and replace your pick of choice with a BC!

5. Great but a little thin for me

   Posted by Rick Jones on 19th Sep 2016

   I recently bought several picks from Blue Chip not knowing the thickness I would like. I have used Dunlap Jazz 204/205 for a long time but a buddy had a Blue Chip which was interesting. The 35 Jazz is a little thin for my use but still a good pick.

6. like a scalpel

   Posted by Oliver de Peralta on 19th Feb 2016

   This pick is so precise and accurate - Its like you cutting with a scalpel notes out of your guitar - I have played now 5 different blue picks ---- Jazz 35 ----Jazz LG 40----Jazz 50 ---- Jazz LG 60 ---and CT 55 -----
   All picks are amazing on its own - each different pick gives another paying feel and sound and in the end it will be a personal preference to find which pick gives you the best results for your skill level and playing style. I would recommend to buy your first bluechip pick in a size what you usually play and you can't get wrong with that ---- I am a guitar teacher and have not played a pick what is so enjoyable to play --- I have tested this pick with all my student and there was not one of my students want to go back to the old ones and every student had immediate better sound on the guitar ....... $ 35 is a bargain for what you get out and I will stay with this pick for my rest of my guitar life ---- Hope that helps to make a buying decision - congrats to bluechip pick to crack the code on how to bring the world the best pick you can imagine

7. Great for Bluegrass too!

   Posted by David on 17th Nov 2015

   I've had the TAD 60, STP 35, and now the Jazz 35. I mainly like to flatpick with some occasional strumming. I find the small size with sharp point very accurate for flat picking. Even though there is no bevel, the pick just glides off the strings. And since the pick is a 35 thickness, she bends every so slightly for a good strum. This is my favorite Bluechip pick of all the ones I've tried. David.

8. This pick is awesome

   Posted by Stewart Darling on 25th Aug 2014

   Demo'd the pick for a local luthier and he was totally amazed ot the sound it produced.
   
   I totally agree. Compared it to Dunlop's Jazz pick of same thickness. Blue Chip far superior

9. Best All-Around Guitar Pick I've Found

   Posted by Ross Whitney on 19th May 2014

   I wouldn't spend this much money for a pick I didn't think sounded and felt better to use than other picks. I do use some others occasionally, if I need something thinner for strumming, but I'm grateful these Blue Chip picks are available. I go through one about every 6 months, and mostly use the Jazz 35 and sometimes the Jazz 50 for a bigger sound.

10. My best pick in 40 years!

    Posted by Skip Neumann on 4th Oct 2012

    I switched from Jazz III to the BC JAZZ 35. I have had alot of picks in my life and this is by far the best. I cover pretty much all guitar styles; jazz,funk,rock,blues,country and this pick works for all. As was mentioned in some of the demo videos, the pick is smooth but is easy to grip and does not get away from you when you're picking fast. It is a wonderful pick for sweep picking and high speed arpeggios. My best tip is to buy more then one and lock away the spare pick in a safe place. I lost my very first one and was having real trouble using any other pick. I know the cost is in the realm of ridiculous but there is no replacement for something that really works... I guess I would gladly trade one of my $200 distortion pedals that's sitting in the closet for a bunch of these picks.
