My first BlueChip pick purchase was a TPR-45. I play with the corner of the teardrop so I thought the TPR with 3 of these edges would provide a long life (zero wear so far). I'm happy with this pick but the TD-40 feels much better to me and I enjoy the slightly thinner pick. The response and volume are better with the TD-40. I am very happy I took advantage of the free engraving offer so a good seminarian could identify the pick and call me that it was found. If I purchase any additional BlueChip picks I will definitely spend the money to have it engraved.

I've been playing my Martin and Mossman dreadnaughts using BlueChip flatpicks and thumbpicks for the past several years and consider them to be essential equipment in my music. The flatpicks pull great tone from the guitars, glide effortlessly across the strings, and present a firm surface to grip. The thumbpicks are comfortable and present the same ability to pull volume and tone as the flatpicks.
These picks are the best.

I LOVE Blue Chip picks! This is my 4th and they are all different shapes and thicknesses and are all used for different things. This latest one is for my electric guitar playing. It provides fat tone with excellent clarity. It slides through the strings very fast and accurate. They never wear so the tone is always consistent and the pick never developed a ridge that hangs in the strings. The price seems really high for a pick, but in the grand scheme of your favorite past time, it really is not much money. In 4 years I have never lost a Blue Chip pick! If you have not tried one, give it a whirl, I am confident that you will see the value and possibly find something as close to pick perfection as is possible!!

After receiving my first TD40 with a right bevel and loving it, I purchased a second TD40 without bevel; I wanted to have the option of a more mellow tone. The beauty of these picks is that they bring out a more centered, round, beautiful tone from your guitar. I did a "blind-fold" comparison on my wife, playing with other picks, as wellas the Blue Chips. She said the TD40s were "richer" sounding.

I was skeptical upon ordering this pick. How much better than other picks could it really be? When I received it, struck a few chords and played a few single-note lines, I became a true believer real quick. Honestly, I could play a tad faster and accurately (probably because there was less friction) and the pick "felt" great in my hand. I've ordered another one.

Hands down the best pick I've ever used. Great tone, very fast and accurate. They don't wear out. I started with a heavier gauge and found the TD40 more siuted for my playing. I'll never buy another pick. Blue Chip TD 40 are the holy grail for me

Never thought I would find a pick as good as tortoise - but I have, thanks Blue Chip. Cut the price in half and I will buy twice as many!

So, a few of my music pals have allowed me to try their BlueChips. Of course they hover over me making sure I don't pocket it. But alas, I did pocket one and then lost it in the laundry. I can be a loser like that. Which is why I'm been hesitant to purchase my own. But since I had to replace my pal's I went and got a few of my own.
They are awesome. Hard to believe a pick can make such a difference. Great for my guitar and my mando. Feel wonderful and yields the best sound.
If I wasn't so terrified of losing them I'd never hesitate to pay the high price. Well worth ... but not if I keep losing 'em!! So now it's an exercise in mind control - I will always put the pick in my strings, I will always put the pick in my strings, never in the laundry, never in the laundry, never in the laundry!!!

I was hesitant about the price of this pick but a few of my friends tried them and they love them. I ordered mine and when it arrived and I tried it, I was sold. It is comfortable in my hand and I love the tone I get when using it. I also ordered the little case for it which is great and keeps it from getting lost among other items in my guitar case. Great Products!!
