5 Best pick evah!
Posted by Dave on 30th Dec 2025
This is my third Blue Chip. Started with a TD40, went to TD50, lost it, went back to TD40, but love the thickness of the 50. As much as I wish it were cheaper, I can’t complain. The pick is worth all of the 35 bucks. It feels super, transfers energy seamlessly and quietly (no clicking), its a great company to deal with, and they shipped it petty quickly! I wish they were sold somewhere in the New England area, but mail order works so, again, no complaints.

5 Full midrange sound
Posted by Dean Swiatek on 16th Dec 2025
On acoustic, I find the TD-50 consistently has very rich midrange. If you have a heavily mid scooped guitar, this might be the pick for you. It's also a great pick for electric. With the speed bevel, the tip is about the perfect thickness to get some pretty good pinch harmonics (I would wager the TD-45 would get the most squeal there, but a TD-40 or TD-50 is close)

5 Thumbs Up for the Round Bevel
Posted by Mike on 27th Nov 2025
I’ve been choosing the Speed Bevel with my Blue Chip picks, but thought I’d try the TD with the Round Bevel for my mandolin. Success! With the Round Bevel TD50 I instantly had tremolo! Always was a struggle for me when I was using the Speed Bevel. Yeah?

5 Haven’t lost it yet
Posted by Charlie on 24th Nov 2025
My biggest hesitation when I bought this was that I was gonna lose it right away. But alas, somehow this pick doesn’t want to get lost. Also has quickly become my favorite pick. Feels great and definitely has a positive impact on tone. Will likely buy more in the future

why did I think buying a $40 pick was a good idea? you should offer pick insurance.

5 If you thought 45s were good...
Posted by D-plankster on 21st Oct 2025
Yes, it's the Goldilocks size for electric plank spanking Fullerton sounds. Tried the 45, which is by all means excellent. 50 is perfect for keeping the sparkle but adds just a touch more meat. 60 and 80, as I have both, are darker picks, but fun to have on hand. For most scenarios the 50 is hands down the winner.

3 Just An Average Pick
Posted by Danny on 16th Oct 2025
I have a TD40, 50, and 60. Don't know what the fuss is about. I don't hate them, but just another guitar pick to me, albeit much more expensive. It's not bad, but not particularly better. I still find myself reaching for Primetones. I guess if there is one thing that stands out to me it's the grip. They are less apt to slide in my fingers.

5 The Absolute Best Pick for Acoustic Instruments
Posted by Kevin on 30th Aug 2025
I had been using Red Bears exclusively for a couple of years and decided to try a BlueChip. It sure feels great, but on an electric, I still prefer the sound of a Red Bear. On an acoustic however, the BlueChip is clearly superior. It gives you a full range where the RBs cut the high end a bit. It's the only pick I would ever want to use on an acoustic and I absolutely love it!

5 TD 50
Posted by Jeff on 16th Aug 2025
Superb picks. I use TD 50 on a smaller body guitar, TD 60 on larger. Wonderful picks.
