1. TPR100 : The Rolls Royce of guitar picks

   Posted by Scott on 27th Sep 2024

   As a gypsy jazz guitarist, I've tried a lot of different picks. My favorite materials were Galalith and tortoise shell (I have 2) around 3mm thick. The TPR100 is simply head and shoulders above them. There is really no comparison to tortoise shell - the Blue Chip material is superior in EVERY WAY. Articulation, pick chirp, tone, volume, grip (!!) - everything is better.
   
   I was having a lot of problems with gripping the pick, using too much tension and the pick was still falling out of my hand. From the first moment of using the TPR100 I have not thought about it again. The pick is just ever so slightly tacky on the fingers, and yet glides over the strings as if lubricated. WTF?!
   
   This pick pulls out more of each guitar's natural sound than any other. Truly a marvel.
   
   Con: For $75, it would be really nice to get a little pick pouch included with the order.

   This is very thick pick. I can hold it easily with minimum efforts on my fingers. I love using it.

5. Custom thickness made great perfect!

   Posted by Jeff Bonny on 6th Jul 2020

   I was real happy using a TPR 60 for about ten years but always felt I’d like it to be thicker. Noticing the TAD was available as a 100 I asked Blue Chip if they’d do a TPR shape in a 100 and that’s all it took. I can play with almost any pick but a TPR 100 (or TAD 100 “Round Edge”) is the only pick I want to play with. Thanks y’all at Blue Chip for making them for me.

6. Good but a little too thick for me.

   Love the TAD 803R, so I had to try the Tad 100 3R, but is too fat and not articulate enough for me personally, good pick though.

8. TAD 100 Rounded Edge- the big tone puller

   Posted by Mark Stultz-Hendersonville, TN on 6th Mar 2017

   By far the best versatile pick for me!. I have been a Blue Chip player and fan for 8 years now, fist getting 2 Blue Chip custom copies of my favorite Red Bear (which always wore down quickly had rough edges) for electric and acoustic. I have played a Blue Chip XR on mandolin and really realized I am more relaxed and more efficient of a picker with the bigger shape, so I went on a quest to see if I could find an XR with a traditional point and the TAD was there. I play heavier gauge strings than most players and LOVE the tone that the TAD 100 pulls out of my electric and acoustic guitars. The speed bevel is not for me, I play rounded. I just use a looser grip to play lighter passages. Blue chip has been a blessing, no wear, smooth, warm, clear & fast. The price was not an issue, I had a TAD 80 which I still use on my OM-18V Martin and knew the 100 would get me there for my D18GE, jazz electrics and semi hollow playing.

9. Great Pick for Jazz!!

   Posted by Greg on 12th Feb 2016

   Love this pick, even though it is very expensive...Glides over strings faster than any other pick I've ever tried....Excellent for sweep picking or single note picking. I use this on a 17" archtop with heavy flatwounds.
