TAD 50
Posted by vincent varano on 10th May 2016
These picks are consistently great. Great finish work on them. Great sound to my ears. The fact that they never ware out is an added bonus. I'm thankful I found this company.

Tried the rest...this is the best!
Posted by David Lee Martin on 23rd Feb 2016
I am using the 50, 60 and 80 TAD picks. Most of the time I will stick with the 60. Great tone, great feel and no (and I repeat) - no string drag. The only thing close to the tone, feel and playability is a real tortoise shell. I have a couple left from the 70's and they are now retired because of my Blue Chips. Also, very little signs of wear with these picks. If I want a bit brighter sound I will use the 50TAD. ( I also use this on my Tele) . If I want a darker jazz tone I move up to the 80TAD. For all around flatpicking and fiddle tunes it's the TAD60. Also, my pick of choice for the 5-string (replacing my white National) is the JD in large. These picks are it...Get a Blue Chip and your search will be over!!!

Tad 50 pick
Posted by SL on 1st Feb 2016
I have the smalled Tad 50 with the one point and two rounded edges. Love this pick. It glides much better, just as they say and I'd tried several picks before this one. I needed help with tremolo work and it's been perfect.

Best Gift Idea in Years!
Posted by Sid Huston on 22nd May 2015
Personally, I love the Blue Chip picks, their string clean response and "grip" ... but, best of all - the combo of a TAD30 andorTAD50 w/personalized boxes make highly appreciated gifts for my mando and guitar picking family and friends!

Best pick I've owned.
Posted by Rob B. on 22nd May 2015
This is an awesome pick that only seems to get better with age. As I wear into it a little (which is a subtle thing, considering these picks hardly wear) the 'sweet spot' becomes apparent and always reliable.
It may take a little trial and error to find the perfect size and gauge, but when you do, viola!

I don't know why
Posted by Bill McCrory on 21st Apr 2015
This pick seems to bounce off the strings better than any other I have used. It seems quicker and cleaner for flat picking and solos.It is worth the extra money but don't lose it.

TAD 50 - Great pick
Posted by Howard Band on 17th Apr 2015
The TAD 50 is a great pick. Frankly, all the BlueChip picks are great. Just a matter of finding the shape and gauge that works best for your personal playing. BlueChip ended the "eternal" pick search for me. I think it had for a lot of folks.

I Love These Things
Posted by Peter Van Wagner on 17th Mar 2015
First I like the size. I've used Fender Heavy's for decades but now they seem too small. I've used other large triangular picks but wasn't happy with the sound. I friend gave me a Blue Chip CT55 for my birthday and suddenly everything fit together - size and tone. After a year of not losing it, I decided to get another Blue Chip. This time I tried the TAD50 and I love 'em both! Not too much difference between the two. They both ROCK.

State of the Art Picking Technology!
Posted by James Adkins on 5th Jan 2015
I absolutely love Blue Chip Picks! The TAD-50 is my favorite because of its size and thickness. Regardless of preference, these picks have a very noticeable tonal difference from your "run of the mill" plastic pick and they have a better grip as well. I have also tried many, MANY other boutique picks and still I'm hooked. I've grown used to people laughing when I tell them that I buy $35 picks, so I tend to give my slightly used Blue Chips away to other players. More often than not, they become addicted too! If I show up to a gig without my Blue Chip (which almost never happens) I feel like I've forgotten an important piece of equipment. I would highly recommend Blue Chip picks to anyone who is striving for that perfect tone or for any player who wants to get the most out of their pick!!
