Best pick for Bluegrass flatpicking
Posted by Ian Valentine on 8th Jul 2020
Definitely worth the money. And it seems indestructible. I've got some other picks that I've used for years and so, unless I lose this, it's very worth the money.
I don't know whether its the material or the bevel edge, but it slips through the strings more easily than any other pick.

Best Bass Guitar pick ever
Posted by Ed Butler on 11th May 2020
This is my second Blue Chip pick. Initially I purchased the TAD1R 60, because I thought the rounded point option might sometimes be useful on bass. I was very happy with it, and decided I wanted a spare so I could stash one in each of my main practice locations. Instead of getting the exact same pick, I went with the TAD50 to try the slightly thinner option -- and because I found I was never needing the rounded point on the TAD1R 60. For me, the TAD50 is the perfect balance of attack and warmth I want for bass guitar.

Change the way you play
Posted by Tom on 6th May 2020
I finally bought another blue chip (lost the first one) after realizing how silly it was that I was trying to do serious work on right and left hand technique and just using all sorts of different picks and ones that would wear out within days. Nothing to make you feel inadequate like playing Billy in the lowground over and over...and over every day just focusing on every sensation of your picking actions.
As a violinist, it would be unimaginable for me to use a different bow every week, or just casually lose one under the couch. I treat my pick with the same respect, and it rewards me in the same way my relationship with my bow does.

Blue Chip gets a Blue Ribbon
Posted by Gerald Friedman on 24th Mar 2020
Have started playing again after a long hiatus and have been struggling with numerous picks.
Saw the TAD60 being used by an on-line instructor and thought I'd give it a try.
Has made all the difference in the world in my progress getting back to playing.

Great pick

A friend introduced me to the TAD 50. The shape and size is comfortable. The bevel has improved my play significantly. I like the mellow tone. Well worth the price.

phenomenal

I’ve typically used thinker picks (TAD60) but I wanted to try something thinner after hearing Bryan Sutton uses a TP48 or something. Turns out I really love this TAD50! Cool to have different thicknesses for different moods, string age, tones, etc. All BlueChip picks are great!

Better than expected!
Posted by TBar on 11th Sep 2019
I had thought a 50 thickness would be too much and wouldn't give the flex needed for pick nuances, but this triangle TAD gave just the right clarity and muscle to impress me! I love it. My playing is better and the tone is similar if not better than my "real" picks.

Excellent mandolin pick
Posted by Pappy on 26th Aug 2019
After my son’s dog ate his first Tad50 pick, I decided to order one for him and another for me. He raved about it, so I had to try. It really brings out the tone of my Larrivee A33 mandolin. I love it! Yes, it’s pricey, but I’m worth it.

Love my TAD50
Posted by Dennis Purdy on 12th Aug 2019
I have used a lot of picks and was skeptical about this one because it is a bit spendy and I got the TAD by accident instead of the TD. It seemed a bit slick to grip at first but I put a small piece of masking tape on each side. It didn't take long to get used to the tri-tip shape and the little piece of tape worked perfectly. Now it is the only pick I use and if I lose it, I am getting another right away. I love the rich sound with no hint of pick click. Also I have now played with it for several days and lots of hours and I can't detect any wear on it at all. Long as I don't lose it, it will probably be the only pick I ever need.
