  1. finally a pick I dont drop 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 31st Mar 2025

    I’ve been having hand issues due to carpal tunnel and trigger finger. I’ve been having problems holding onto my picks. I tried several with different grips and even put in sticky stuff but it did not work. I never wanted to spend this much on a pick but I gave it a try and it was well worth the money. I also never used this thick of a pick but after having used them for a few months now I’m used to the thickness.
    I ordered three more with my name as I’m not changing back now.

    Great pick

    I tried on the recommendation of a friend. The size is perfect. The material get easier to hold as it warms up while playing. Tone is amazing.


  3. The Best! 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 21st Feb 2025

    I use a TAD 48 and CT 55 for my Mandolin and TP 40 and TP 48 for my guitar. These picks are the best out there by far and are really inspiring to make music with!


  4. Best picks I’ve ever used! 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 16th Jan 2025

    These picks are the Bomb! As a bluegrass mandolin player, I’ve switched sizes, styles, and thicknesses and have always had great results. I’ve went from an 80mm down to a 40mm TAD which is my current pick. They are easy to hold onto and slick on the strings. I don’t think you can be disappointed.


  5. Gift for Left Handed Picker 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 26th Dec 2024

    I just gifted a friend who recently switched to left handed guitar a TAD 40 left bezeled pick. As usual, great customer service and friend is real pleased with the outcome, and with his name engraved. Thanks Blue Chip.


  6. Can't Believe It! 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 9th Dec 2024

    I have always wanted to try one before I paid that much money for a pick. I recently had the opportunity to play with someone who had a TAD 40 so she let me try it. I could tell a big difference with the first strum. So, I ordered it. The first time I played it with my band the leader just looked at me and said "WOW!" I hadn't even told him I had bought a Blue Chip.


  7. Pic Tad 35 custom 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 4th Dec 2024

    I am very happy with my pick and the customer service that I received!


  8. very good but also like others 4 Star Review

    Posted by on 30th Oct 2024

    I use it for playing Martin hd28v with med strings. good sound with lots of volume. I actually like the Martin .96 mm pick better for sharper sound but the 40 bluechip gets much more volume. The BC 40 is a 1mm pick. wish BC made one a little less than 1mm. I believe it would give crispness and volume. Moving up to the BC 48 and 50 does not work on the Martin. The tone gets way too soft. However, the BC 50 is an absolute killer on my mandolins, nothing else comes close.


  9. BLUECHIP PICKS: Outstanding product and outstanding customer service. 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 4th Sep 2024

    The picks glide across the strings.
    The owners are very receptive to reasonable customizations. Easy to to business with, and quick turn around.


  10. The BEST pick I have ever used!! 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 3rd Sep 2024

    This TAD40 I just bought is my 4th BlueChip. The slightly larger triangle shape offers more area to grip and the sound these things make is top notch after you master it. Do yourself a favor and purchase your favorite BlueChip shape, your playing is worth it.
