Was Skeptical, but now believe.
Posted by Rob Lewis on 25th May 2021
The polish finish of Blue Chip picks is where it's at. It's smoother than glass, durable, and easy to hold on to. A real PLEASURE to play with!
That being said, the price is very heavy. If I lose it, it's gone; I can't be replacing a pick that costs 4-6 sets of strings, or 2 leather straps.

highly recommend
Posted by Yuichi Fukatsu on 5th Jan 2021
I have tried so many picks for many years...the feel is very important for me when I play Vintage Nocaster 51 and Telecaster 1960.
I wanted to improve my picking technic, so I start using Jazz size.
It is so amazing the pick is not worn out - you can count 10 to 15 other picks worn out at the same period of time.
It is expensive, but I would highly recommend... I actually give some of my engraved picks to guitar players to try - it is that good.

thickness
Posted by Pascal on 14th Oct 2020
The pick sounds great. Unfortunately, I was looking for a pick similar to my dunlop jazz III 1.14, and the Jazz 50 was suggested to me. I think I would have preferred a lower gauge, the pick feels a bit to thick. I think they offer custom gauges though!

Best Pick Ever

I've been using my Jazz50 pick to play mandolin for a month now and I'm loving it. This is my first Bluechip pick.

My Favorite Pick
Posted by Matt on 30th Jun 2020
Admittedly, I was a bit hesitant to spend $35 on a pick but after Julian Lage recommended them I figured I'd take the risk.
So far, after a couple of weeks I'm glad I did. I normally use Jazz III picks and after a week I'll notice the tip wearing down as well as other signs of wear appearing, but after a couple weeks of heavy use with the BC Jazz 50 I notice zero wear.
The pick feels comfortable in my hand and I find it does not shift around like some others do. It is also very stiff which gives me the feeling I need for funky playing.

My Jazz 50 has a really good grip. It is comfortable to play with nice sound.

Dethroned the Jazz III
Posted by Patrick Adams on 22nd Aug 2018
After years of commitment to the Jazz III, it has been replaced by the BC JAZZ 50. I discovered Bluechip through the model Julian Lage uses (TP50). Immediately I fell in love with how the pick added warmth yet maintained the attack. However, I needed something more the size of the jazz iii. I have now landed on the BC JAZZ 50, and the warmth/tone/thickness it provides (especially on the high B and E strings), makes it indispensable. Do not hesitate to try this pick out.

Best pick I've found to date
Posted by Robert H. on 16th Jun 2016
I had injured my fretting hand awhile back, so took that "opportunity" to audition a great many picks. I've always preferred a small pick with a fairly pointed tip, plus I use a hybrid, pick and fingernails technique, so I wanted a pick that somewhat matched the sound of my fingernails. The Jazz 50 is the only pick I've found that gives me all three aspects I have been looking for: it is surprisingly easy to hold on to, it is a good match to the fingernails on my other 3 fingers, and it simply produces the best tone I've heard from any pick on both my electrics and acoustics. So far they seem amazingly durable, so the price is not a concern, though I certainly hope I don't lose any!

Dead Solid Perfect!
Posted by Tom Karol on 1st Jan 2016
I've been using Jazz 60's on my archtop (strung with roundwound 12's) for almost 4 years now (with little or no signs of wear by the way). On my semi-hollow (roundwound 11's), however, they sounded a bit too dark. So, I put the Jazz 50 on my XMas list this year, and a good friend came through. This one's perfect for this guitar: Same great feel, but a brighter attack. Amazing - guess I'll have to get a couple more!

The perfect pick for me
Posted by Tony Kukulich on 6th Nov 2015
I've been a fan of the Dunlop Jazz IIIs for a while, but felt like they had a little too much flex in them. I tried the Dunlop 205, and while I liked that too, it felt like too much pick. After accepting that I was going to spend $35 on a single pick, I ordered a Jazz 50.
For me, it's perfect. It's stiff and delivers energy to the string without flexing. But it's very comfortable in my hand. It glides effortlessly across the strings, so playing 16th note funk rhythm is not a problem. It's the first pick I've used that I don't think about when I'm playing. It's just there doing its job. I ended up buying a second so that one is always in the gig bag and one is always on the rehearsal stand.
