Not as bright of tone as td48, which seems to be very popular. Slightly bigger in width than td48 and is 1.25mm. My alvarez md60bg sounds more woody and more antique with this pic. guitar has light addarios strings. It's a keeper. I really do not have a preference between the 2 picks. I can say you can't go wrong with the tad50. Neither of the 2 picks spins between my fingers. Hope all this helps.

Great pick. It was weird adjusting at first, but after slowly adjusting to it I feel I get slightly more volume at jams and can relax a little more rather than dig in so I can hear myself

Plays really smooth, I like my picks a little bigger as a have big hands. Tone is great

A passing comment on a Bryan Sutton video made me try this pick. Although picks get changed depending on the style and mood of the music, this has become the #1 go-to for almost everything. So for me, absolutely worth the cost.

I play mandolin and this pick is the absolute best. I chose the round bevel as it produces a medium-mellow attack. But the best thing about this pick is how easy it makes tremolo. Yes it it very expensive for a pick, but get the engraving and the case and it's unlikely you will lose it.

People laugh when I tell them how much my pick cost me. Then they try it out and the laugh turns to joy. “But I lose picks,” they say. “Me too,” I reply. But not as often because I use the pick pouch when the pick is not in my hand.

Blue Chip picks have a feel that is just awesome, and the clean sound I get using them is the best. I’m old enough to have used Tortoise shell picks when they were available. I fully support the ban on Tortoise shell, but nothing gave me that sound that I missed so much, Until Blue Chips. There is none of the pick slap, buzz, or thinness of tone that I was getting from most picks. The texture and grip is better than anything else I’ve tried. I hesitated purchasing Blue Chips for a long time because of cost. That was my mistake and I’m glad I finally bought them.

I simply love these picks. My playing buddies tried mine and now we all use them. Pricey, yes, but they last forever and give a superior feel on the strings. With the super hard material creating such a crisp tone.

I play Bluechip Picks since about 3 years and i got a couple of them in many shapes and with a different thickness.
The difference in sound, feel and play to other Brands is really huge and worth every penny of these wonderful picks.
For me the best choice.
