Different sound. Still good but stands up to any wear and I play hard. No more broken strings. Rate it 4/5. The best customer service

I bought this pick along with a TAD 50 for my mandolin. Both are outstanding, but I prefer the tone of the 50 for the mandolin, I am keeping the 40 as a backup and to try out on my guitar (Martin M36).

I have found this TD40 the very best pick in the industry ,it won't wear out it won't slip in you fingers, the clarity is that of a Tortoise shell pick and they are Legal. They are so amazing they even have the ability of growing legs and walking away----(

It feels right in your hand and the way it "releases" from the strings has to be experienced to be understood. I've got dozens of picks and there's nothing like these BlueChips. It's this simple - a great guitar deserves a great pick.

Having used a CT55 for about 2 years now I felt I wanted something a bit lighter with some small give. The TAD 40 suited me perfectly. It probably lacks a little of the volume of the CT55 but easily has the same tone and feel. Having tried 3 other popular branded plecks I'd safely say I'll never use another pick on my mandolin.

Love this pick. Has just the right "click" off the strings. Easy to hold on to, but slides over the strings like butter. Brings out the tone of my HD28.

This plectrum sounds amazing! I would like to see some different bevel options.

I have been on a mission for about 8 months. I felt like my pick was holding me back and I knew I needed something that better accommodated my playing style and my guitar. As a flat picker who plays a lot of fast bluegrass tunes, my pick has a huge impact on my playing and tone. After spending month buying a wide variety of less expensive picks, in varying sizes, shapes, thicknesses and types, I felt as though there was not a pick out there for me. Then through another guitar player, I learned about Blue Chip picks. I was initially very hesitant to spend $40 on a single pick, but after not finding anything I liked elsewhere, I decided to give it a try. After playing on a Blue Chip now for a few weeks, both in practice and at gigs, all I can say is wow. Blue Chip picks are truly the best picks on the market and worth every penny. Super fast, great tone and fantastic grip. My TAD 40 has definitely taken my playing to a new level.
