This pick is very wide and while it has great tone and reflex, it does tend to get slippery due to the large size.
Would definitely recommend this pick, but it could use a grip.

I've been using a TAD40 as my primary pick through five years of music school. It sounds and feels great for steel and nylon string acoustic, mandolin, electric bass and guitar. Mine recently broke, but that was because someone used it to pry something open. With regular use I'm sure it had a few more years. Anyways, I've bought a new one of course and can't wait to start breaking it in.

My second of this model. They do wear.
Same feedback as before... The brown is nice but if dropped in low light, it's gone. The surface texture is highly polished and tends to slip a bit if hands get sweaty. Maybe a textured option would be a good idea.

I never thought a pick would change my sound, tone of my guitar both acoustic and electric.
When I first received my Blue Chip pick I was extremely skeptical .
Not now. I played that pick the first day and noticed a difference right way.
So I went right back to their website and ordered a second one!
Great product.

Very satisfied with my TAD35 Blue Chip Pick. Its size and flexibility allows me to both pick and strum more naturally with the wrist than other picks I have used.

The TAD 40 is a great pick especially for fast pickers and cross picking. I wish there had been an option on the website of having grip holes drilled on the pick for better control. Thus 4 stars, not for the pick, but for the lack of options on the website.

I have tried several Blue Chip Picks. Each one is great. The TAD40 is the one that best suits my hand. Before the Blue Chip Picks I knew a pick shape, size and texture made a difference in my tone and the nimbleness of my picking hand, but the BCP is in a class by itself. These picks are comfortable, durable and they help me achieve a tone I really enjoy. TAD40 is my number #1 pick choice.

I’ve used them all. BC are best tone, even on my wide variety of guitars.

These picks changed the game for me. Growing up in Bluegrass and Country music involves a lot of hard drive guitar picking. I’ve used the TAD 40 since I was 17 years old. I am now 20 and the way I feel about this pick has never changed… Performing at high end venues such as the West Virginia State Fair, the Bean Blossom Bluegrass Festival in Indiana and various Historical theaters around the Appalachian region, I’ve come to the realization that you need to use the best in order to strive to be the best… That is why I use Bluechip Picks.
