The STP is a smaller version of the TP. It is the same basic size as our Kenny Smith signature pick, but has sharper corners. The STP in a 50 thickness is the pick that Adam Steffey currently uses. This is the STP in 50/1000ths of an inch thickness(1.25mm). All of our picks are professionally machined, hand beveled, and laser etched. This pick comes with a speed bevel.
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 literally tried dozens of picks of various shapes and thicknesses etc. After test driving the stp 50 I couldn’t imagine using any other pick. Easy to grip and glides through the strings. Your pick has made me and my guitar sound better!

3 beveled sides, same height as jazz picks, figured I’d like it but the shape is not as easy to get a consistent hold as the jazz for some reason.
If you’re used to jazz picks and want to give it a try, I’d say stick with your guns.

Couldn’t be happier. The bass and trebles are as they should be -

Je me permet ce comment en français, pour tous les utilisateurs français!
J’ai acheté ça par envie, envie de voir si ça changeait vraiment tant que ça les choses. Je dois dire que mon Dunlop faisait très bien l’affaire et j’ai toujours un peu de mal à me faire à l’aspect lisse du mediator bluechip. Mais le son est différent c’est vrai. On sent moins les cliquetis et on se sent aussi plus ... puissant ! Donc un bon effet placebo en somme ! Par contre, finitions impeccables et envoie hyper rapide !

I would say the STP 50 is exactly between what you would call a thicker pick and a thin pick.
I actually switched to using thicker picks for both acoustic as well as electric guitar and thought I was purchasing a 'thick' pick when I purchased an STP 50. To my surprise, it was thinner that what I expected it. What I did not expect was that the pick had the feel of a thinner pick but a thicker sound. I would say this would be ideal for people that like the feel of thinner picks.
As for me, I'm going to keep using this pick as I have no complaints.
I've been using V-Picks for some time, mainly the Johnny Highland signature series pick. I grew to love the sound of that pick. So what I found is that I prefer using the bluechip pick for acoustic and prefer using the V-Pick for my electric guitar because it has a little brighter attack. The bluechip pick has a solid warm to bright mid range sound. Had I not discovered v-picks, I would have solely used the bluechip pick because in my opinion, it stands out above any pick I have ever used in my life and possibly my V-Pick
For right now, I enjoy having 2 favorite picks. My strumming has considerably gotten cleaner, faster and more accurate using the bluechip pick. It's not only the bevel on the pick that made the difference, it has got to be in the material they make these picks out of.
Oh by the way, both the V-Pick and bluechip pick stick to your fingers after a certain amount of heat/moisture has bonded with these picks. I would say the bluechip pick sticks even more firmly.
I found it interesting on the V-Pick website, they sell a tool to re-sharpen the bevel on their picks. I wonder if bluechip picks will ever do that. I'm sure a simple file could perform the task.
It's funny, the impression I get when holding these bluechip pick is that I'm holding a bar of firm clay that hasn't been fired yet, yet it's not squishy, nor -it's not hard and brittle like other picks, nor does it have a nylon feel like a jazz pick, yet the pick produces a warm yet somewhat bright and rich tone. It's definitely brighter and louder than any pick that I've ever played except my V-Pick.
My bluechip pick is definitely my prized possession. Maybe the price point has to do something with that, or just knowing the fact that more than a few Nashville players use it.

After using TPR 50s for several years, a friend gave me an STP as a gift. Still love the TPRs but the STP gives the option of a little brighter attack, slightly different tone. Now I will have to keep one of each in all the guitar cases.
Thanks, Blue Chip Team. I love your picks and can’t be satisfied with anything less!

I am just about to graduate beginner stage in the guitar playing. I came across with this pick on the internet as a guitar teacher whom I respect and trust was talking about and using this product. So I purchased the STP50 which he was using. At first, I did not understand what speed bevel means. But no sooner than I began playing with it, I found how immensely it differs from other picks. It glides through the strings so smoothly and produces remarkably mellow sound. Even my wife who is usually a harsh critic uttered frank impression saying "Wow, what a progress you've made." I just smiled and did not mention about my secret weapon.
