Perfect for pulling out the tone with bluegrass guitar
Posted by JS on 14th Sep 2023
Just what the headline says. The shape suit my playing style and the with a tip shape that helps to extract a bit more brightness to cut through the mix. You don't hear the pick, but you'll hear the great tone of your guitar. These are expensive but you get what you pay for -- a pick that you will love. I bought one and then I bought two more (gotta have extras in case tragedy strikes and someone steals one)

Just the right amount of give
Posted by David Woelkers on 12th Sep 2023
I’ve played the TD and TAD 50 for a year prior and the TAD 40 seems to make flatpicking faster runs a little easier with the pick not wanting to overdig into the strings. It has a noticeably brighter tone to it vs the TAD50 but in a good way. I work to always have good pick hand technique with a looser relaxed grip and the TAD40 for me just plucks and moves on better it doesn’t try to stick around too long like our congress.

Great for flatpicking
Posted by JS on 23rd Aug 2023
At first I wasn't sure about shelling out $35 for a pick! Then after I got used to this pick, I bought two more :) Just in case. These work great for me for bluegrass guitar picking, adding some brightness to the boominess and helping the guitar stand out more in the mix. They feel great on the strings and deliver a really nice tone. They're worth the price.

Beyond Outstanding
Posted by Tucker on 8th Aug 2023
There is simply no way to overstate how incredible these picks are. Like many of my friends, I was exceptionally skeptical that any rational person would pay $35 for a single flat pick. One day, out of sheer curiosity, I ordered one. It changed everything about my approach to playing music. I played Bluegrass professionally for almost 15 years, and I will tell you in no uncertain terms that I would gladly pay three times the going rate for a Blue Chip pick.

It's great
Posted by Tom Roche on 2nd Aug 2023
I was afraid it might be too cumbersome and large and it's anything but that. You barely notice it when playing and in my opinion those are the ingredients of a great pick. Love my TAD40

Best Pick Ever
Posted by Todd Michael Wandio on 28th Jun 2023
The TAD40 is far and away the best, most responsive pick I've ever used. Well worth the investment.

The best pick ever
Posted by Susan Horn on 28th Jun 2023
I have other Bluechip picks, but this one the TAD 40 is just what I needed. It’s fast with tremolo on my mandolin, when I strum it’s just perfect and it doesn’t move around like some picks can when your fingers get hot and sweaty. I couldn’t ask for a better pick. I’ll be getting another one soon. And I got it quickly too. Thanks folks.

Large size but thin profile
Posted by DOUG WEISS on 16th Jun 2023
Love that there's plenty of surface to hang on to and the 40 thinness seems brighter than the 55 I have.
Makes my 50s 18s nice and loud. I can really dig in for rhythm arpeggiation

My favorite dread pick
Posted by Roger on 1st Jun 2023
I use it exclusively on my Martin D-28 Modern Deluxe. Exactly the sound I was looking for - no click, just pick.
