1. What a difference

   Posted by Gary Giles on 31st Mar 2015

   This pick was made to go with my Eastmen 515 Mandolin. Just like adding a pickup.

2. Now I'm a believer

   Posted by Mike Bond on 13th Feb 2015

   I tried, for the life of me , to poo poo Blue Chip Picks. I kept thinking, "How can a guitar pick be worth the money?"
   Well, I'm a believer. I purchased the TAD40 and TAD60. I even had my name inscribed.
   These picks stay with you with out having to get a cramp trying to hold on to them. They are quiet when I'm playing quietly and have the stamina when more is needed. All-in-all they are simply the best I have played. I love them and will have more soon. Great job Blue Chip!

3. Simply the best picks i've ever used

   Posted by Sainio Jarmo on 13th Jan 2015

   I shamelessly copied the previous title, without alteration, because I am 100% agree with the previous reviewer. I bought two picks. One "normal" and one round bevel and they arrived today. I play archtop guitar with 013 round wound strings and both picks reduce very similar sound when I play my guitar with my thumb! I am totally amazed. The sound are very clean without any noise. And best of all they are very easy to play. I also have a TAD100, but TAD40's thickness is suitable for me much better.

4. Simply the best picks i've ever used

   Posted by F. on 9th Jan 2015

   My headline says it all, these picks are just amazing, I have been using them for 3 years now, the only problem, well after a year or so I will lose one (darn brown color) They glide through the strings and virtually no pick noise. Worth the money, specially if you already invested on a nice instrument, try them out, you will not be disappointed.

5. Love the size, and triangle shape

   Posted by Bob on 9th Jan 2015

   I play bluegrass guitar. I practice and get out to jams. My level is about lower intermediate. When I got my TAD40 (speed bevel right), I already had a TP1R40, TD35, and TD60. I've found no use for a rounded edge. My hands are big, and I really like the size of the TAD. You get the triangle shape and all 3 points are speed beveled, so you are really getting 3 picks for the price of 1. It also doesn't matter which side is up or down; the speed bevel is the same. Just pick up the pick and play. I also recently got a TAD35, at no extra charge for the special 35 thickness. They are both sweet, but I like the 35 a little better. It is stiff enough, yet the thinness gives a little brighter tone. Blue Chip picks do absolutely have a better grip, and are smoother over the strings. I can't say that I am a lot better picker now, maybe just a little bit, but I don't have to think about my pick anymore. Well worth it, and trust me, once you've used a Blue Chip, you love it, and you won't lose it.

6. Love it.

   Posted by RB on 2nd Jan 2015

   Was introduced to Blue Chip picks by a friend who plays guitar and mando. My reaction, like everyone else's, was $35? For a pick? Bullshit!
   Then I played it. Then I bought a couple. Now I have a half dozen Blue Chip picks and have given some to friends.
   Yes, they are worth it. More than worth it.

9. Bluegrass...

   Posted by Tom Severt on 2nd Dec 2014

   Love the feel of this material. When a person thinks of something as expensive, stand back and look at the whole picture. The large triangle (aka a reuleaux triangle) is important to me in bluegrass and country. In the long run, what's a measly couple hundred dollars. It's only money. Wanted to mess with all five thicknesses of the TAD (love the origin of the name TAD) just for fun. That was me that e-mailed you about the "TAD" acronym. Trying to "finger" out what this composite is. Is it Meldin 7001 Polyimide, if you're free to answer. Respectfully submitted...Tom.....
