Amazing product, and superb customer service!
Posted by Joey Lander on 11th May 2015
I am certain that most guitar, mandolin and banjo players who venture onto the BlueChip Pick website have that moment when they stare in mild sticker shock at the cost of a BlueChip pick. It is unfortunate that the market had told us that we should be spending a dollar, and giving us a $.50 pick. That is exactly what you get, a $.50 connection to your often time thousands of dollar instrument. There is a reason that you will notice that most if not all the BlueChip products rate a five stars by those of us who stepped out on faith to purchase what is truly an instrument accessory. That is because they live up to the hype. BlueChip picks exceed expectations, and they deliver feel, tone and durability that exceed the price we paid. If you ever have the pleasure of interacting with the staff of BlueChip picks, you will quickly learn that their demand for quality extends to their staff as well! Initially, I purchased a pick that was too small, so I called , and they went out of their way to remedy my mistake. To make matters even more difficult, I asked them to use my shipping label to send the pick, instead of their normal routine. They didn't blink. The staff at BlueChip pick from those answering the phones to Matt, always made certain that they overdelivered on customer service as well as product. As long as BlueChip pick continues to produce picks, I will continue to be one of their biggest advocates! Congratulations on getting it right!

TAD-40 Review
Posted by Kowboy on 30th Apr 2015
I took a chance and bought my grandson a TAD-40 pick. He plays guitar and since I use a CT-55 for my mandolin, I wanted him to experience The Blue Chip Revolution. He loves the pick so Grand-Pa bought him another, for back-up. I also purchased The Wooden Pocket Case for him to keep it in. If you're going to play any stringed instrument, why waste your time with a pick that is not the best.

Not cheap, but amazing picks
Posted by Cam on 27th Apr 2015
I have a Tad 35, Tad 40 and a Jazz 100LG - all are simply amazing Picks - comparing the Tad 40 to the 35, I think the 40 is the better pick - it is so versatile, but the 35 is still a great pick. The Jazz is amazing for creating separation of notes and giving you such amazing accuracy. Not cheap, but amazing.

Brings out refined tone
Posted by David on 15th Apr 2015
This pick (TAD 40) is perfect size for me, brings out a really nice refined tone to my Martins, and somehow doesn't seem to have the tendency to slip out of my hand during hard crosspicking like some picks tend to do. Primarily, tone is great. Not too bright and metallic, not too subdued. Not too clicky. At first, I wasn't sure I could tell if there was a $35 difference, but after playing awhile, the advantage to these picks came through. My favorite now, but I'm afraid I might loose it.

I love these picks! They feel great, they play great, they don't wear down, or at least not in a single session. They Rock!

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.

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!

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.

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.

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.
