TD35

The TD 35 and 40 has helped me forget about the pic so much and play more fiddle tunes! I feel like I’m never worried about pic grip anymore and I have more time to focus on playing and enjoying myself. I see my guitar heroes Bryan Sutton, Billy Strings and the amazing Miss Molly Tuttle using the TP I think and I want to try that next. Only down side is dialing in the thickness you like best. You might buy a couple finding your sweet spot. Finding the perfect thickness is an additional level of excellent. I bought one for a friend! Its the perfect price range to surprise a really good pickin buddy for a birthday. The more blue chip picks you have the better. My tone was improved and smaller inputs make bigger differences. My range has definitely increased Volume wise in both directions with Blue Chip Picks I’m pleased and it’s worth the cash if your a tone junkie. It helps the best vintage acoustic guitars sound a notch better and inexpensive guitars benefit the most from what I’ve heard and witnessed. Blue chip pick have made picking even more fun! (Unbelievable I know!) Thanks for making the best pic I’ve ever used. Quality and innovation plus the craftsmanship is something worth buying. Made in the U.S.!!! Long Windy review but I mean it!

I love this pick! It took me a little bit to get used to it because I’m used to a jazz iii size but once I was good with it I haven’t played with anything else. It’s a really great sounding pick and it stays in place better than any pick I’ve used. I’ll definitely be ordering some more.

I’m a longtime Blue Chip user and recently started preferring picks with some flex for electric guitar. I’d stopped using my TPR 60 and tried a number of good lighter gauge alternatives such as Herco’s Holy Grail, Pyramid celluloid, etc. I eventually took the plunge and ordered a TD 35 and it surpasses any of the lighter picks I’d tried. Proof that there’s a perfect Blue Chip for whatever you’re after. I realize some folks consider $35 a small fortune for a pick but I’ve spent a rather large fortune chasing the dragon with overdrives, fuzzes, boutique amps, etc., etc. I’ve found that the importance of how a pick feels, performs and sounds can’t be understated.

I have a variety of picks of all price points, this one is my go to! Plays well, tight in my hand and from all my comparisons give the best tone on my Martin.

Took a while to get used to different material/sound, but once the transition takes place you realize this pick will last forever! Excellent product!

Puns aside, these picks really do feel and sound better to me for most purposes than any other guitar pick I’ve tried. Been using them almost exclusively for years now. I play mostly pop, rock, folk, and country styles of music. The only time I might want something else is when I need a super thin pick, which BlueChip doesn’t make.

I try different styles here and there but I don't use any other brand picks. Maybe I'm not an expert but I sure know what I like.

Like many others I thought there is no way I'm spending $35 on a guitar pick. But I kept seeing players I respect talking about them so when I had some spare change I ordered a TD35. I play mostly electric guitar: rock, blues, country. I wanted a standard guitar pick shape, and I play a Dunlop yellow .73 normally. The TD35 is the closest Bluechip makes. The argument that got me to try one is that a musician who plays a fine instrument, a bassoon for example, would not use the same cheap reed that a beginner would. Seems logical that if I spend a considerable amount on a guitar then is $35 really an outrageous price for something that effects your tone like pick does? My initial impression after playing a few minutes was that I was underwhelmed. It felt just like a regular old Fender medium or maybe a heavy. I felt like I'd been duped. But after playing for an extended time I started to like the feel. What really got me was when I would rapidly switch between the Bluechip, a Dunlop .73 yellow and a Dunlop .88 green. The difference was very noticeable. The Dunlops both now felt like they "stuck" to the string for a microsecond every note I picked. They felt "soft" and flabby. The Bluechip on the other hand felt smooth and precise. If I played the same lick with all 3 picks, it felt cleaner, less effort, and more accurate with the Bluechip. It gives a weird illusion of fretting hand technique being more precise also. My theory is that the lack of pick friction against the string allows for both hands to be more coordinated when that tiny, tiny bit of pick "hang up" is lessened. The difference in tonal quality was less noticeable to me than others have claimed. I think there is a difference but it's subtle for me and my playing style, etc. Lastly, my band did a gig last weekend and at the set break the drummer asked me if I was using my "expensive pick". Without knowing beforehand that I was using the Bluechip TD35, he thought my sound and playing was better than normal. So maybe there is something to this $35 Bluechip pick madness????

Love this pick. Clean sound. Best
