Best so far!
Posted by Michael P Aschoff Jr on 21st Jan 2021
These picks made my JP signature picks sound like I was playing a toy guitar. I really didn't want these to be worth it but they are completely. Can't really play with anything else in the same session. I like these better than my Redbear picks as well. Just a little slippery is all so live use might be an issue but these would be perfect for recording. I bought 3 of these to have some squirreled away :)

Slick Pick
Posted by Social Exodus on 19th Jan 2021
This is my second Bluechip pick, the first being a second hand (but unworn) TAD 60. The TAD 60 was a tad too thick for my Martin 000-28, but works well on my brighter Taylor 814ce.
This pick is a dream on my Martin, giving me back some snap to the attack, and not making the sound too dark.
You can't beat these picks, once you find your match. The only other material I use for acoustics is casein which is a great sound, but a very fragile pick otherwise. The Bluechip picks I have may well last me the rest of my life without appreciable wear.

Like a Good Bow for a Violin
Posted by Ronald Sharpe on 15th Jan 2021
I'm a violinist who has recently taken up the mandolin. A friend recommended I try a BlueChip pick and I'm just amazed—though I really shouldn't be. Violinists understand that a good bow is as important as a good instrument. I should have known the same is true for plucked instruments as well! My new BlueChip pick has an amazing smoothness that has been super helpful in developing a consistent, even tremolo. Considering what we pay for strings, cases, etc. the price of a BlueChip pick is reasonable.

Faith Rewarded
Posted by WILLIAM E GRAY on 21st Dec 2020
Spending this much money on a single pick took a leap of faith but it turns out the Blue Chip is everything I hoped it would be. The proof is I came back and bought two more as gifts for my guitar playing friends. They're everything they claim to be and more.

WOW

It has a smooth glide over the strings, a distinctive tone and it really sticks to your fingers.

Blue Chip picks are the best!!
Posted by Todd Swaney on 7th Oct 2020
I already had the JD Crowe banjo pick and was very pleased with it and this guitar pick instantly brings out the sound from each guitar I've played with it!

My favorite Blue Chip for acoustic
Posted by Christian Sezenias on 4th Sep 2020
I’ve owned a TPR 60 and TAD 3R 60 for quite some time and have thoroughly enjoyed them but wanted to try something just a bit lighter and with a more defined point to get a little more high end out of my Martin 000-15s which is all mahogany. The TAD 50 absolutely nails it. I’ve experimented with a myriad of pricey picks chasing the perfect balance of effortless playability and optimum tone and Blue Chips always come out on top by a considerable margin. The TAD 50 is perfect for the performance and tone I’ve been seeking. Much to my astonishment, a duplicate engraved pick was included with my purchase. I can’t imagine that was an oversight on Matt’s part. I’m literally set for life with picks. A higher recommendation I can not give.

Game changer
Posted by Troy L on 25th Aug 2020
This pick is butter! I love it so much, I don’t think I’d have perfected nearly as many tunes if it weren’t for this pick. It may seem like an over statement, but I won’t play and tony rice unless I have a blue chip handy! thank you!

Exceeded Expectations - Best Pick I Have Tried So Far
Posted by Nicholas Gangemi on 21st Jul 2020
I thoroughly enjoy the tone and feel of this pick. With the right handed bevel, the pick glides through the strings with little to no pick noise. The material is stiffer than more "conventional" pick materials, so I found the 50/1000" (1.25mm) thickness to be perfect, even though I am more used to something closer to 1.3mm.
After playing on it for two weeks, I found the shape to be a little too large, so I ordered up a TP-50 which is a smaller triangle in the same thickness. This TP-50 is perfect for me, so I keep the TAD-50 in my case as backup!
If you're hesitating about trying a blue chip, do it! They are worth every penny.
