Faster signs of wear than I anticipated
Posted by N on 11th Feb 2022
This really has great tone and the material in conjunction with the bevels really glide effortlessly off the string and can because of the bevel it can help take some of the high treble in your playing. I purchased it and I believe I had it within a couple days. However, in the 3 weeks (about THREE 2-4 hour playing sessions each week) between playing I feel as though it shows the same amount of wearing a 1.3mm primetone might have. Other difference from the closest size PT would be the PT has a slightly louder pick attack and those high treble frequencies are present on the PT. How do I know this I used a frequency spectrum analyzer. I’d also like to say I’m not heavy handed either.
I am not writing this saying my BC is unusable because it is far from being unusable. I think people should know it has great playing and tonal qualities like I said above but its not as indestructible as many famous YouTubers and forum members across the internet make them out to be for $35. It’s not diamond against a rock it is still plastic against a set of metal strings.
All that being said I’m sure it’ll still last a few months so take what I said and anything you read on the internet with a grain of salt, after all I am still rating it a solid 4/5 stars. Will I purchase again, maybe but the only reason I’d buy again would be for the gliding over the strings. No pick has ever felt the way my BC feels on the strings. 3 for $35 and I’d be a 100% this is my pick kind of guy, but Vespel is stupid expensive so I don’t blame the owner for the cost.
Cheers, I hope people make informed decisions.

Love the picks.

I love these picks. They are expensive, but the difference between these and others is apparent at first use. Smoother, cleaner sound, they're fast and comfortable. They are the best I have used, hands down.

The Only Pick
Posted by Al Harris, Southern Tied on 1st Jan 2022
Since Leigh and I started using Blue Chip picks three years ago they're the only picks we use.They're easy to grasp, don't slip out and the beveling eliminates pick noise. We have our names engraved on them to make sure we get them back when we let others try them out.

My guitar reached new heights!
Posted by PAUL W. on 14th Dec 2021
I was worried the TD50 may be too heavy. Wow was I wrong. It makes the guitar blossom with sound and tone, or you can strum lightly and get that wonderful aesthetic from a grooving strum. And the control! I can play single lines much quicker. Smooth sound, wonderful control. Absolutely stellar pick.
By the way I'm a longtime owner of a Bluechip thumbpick I use on all my guitars as well. I've used it every day for years and it's like brand new! Anyway, the TD50 is a perfect match for it if you switch between fingerstyle and flatpicking as I do. Both are worth every penny.

The best pick that money can buy so I bought the TD50
Posted by Ray Lawrence Jr on 9th Sep 2021
I bought the BlueChip TD 50. BlueChip picks are a favorite choice among pro Bluegrass pickers but you don't have to be a pro Bluegrass picker to buy one. Use the tools the pros use and you can't go wrong so I tried the TD 50 and fell in love. Yes it is pricey but it is a very good pick and it does help improve tone. Think not? Wait till you try one. I am confident you will think different. It is the only pick I use on my guitars. Even my number 1 Telecaster. Chicken pickers will love this pick too. I also own and use a BlueChip J D Crowe thumb pick on my banjo and Dobro. Take a look at all the picks BlueChip makes on the website. You will find your Go To pick there. I love my BlueChip picks and I am not looking back except to buy more BlueChip picks.

TD50 Review
Posted by Jim on 7th Sep 2021
Use with all of my 6 string acoustics (Martin D35, 00018, 00010E and Gibson J50). Wonderful. I hear the guitar tone. Not the pick. Not so with any plastic picks, regardless of the thickness. Thank you!

Convinced after 5 minutes of noodling…
Posted by Avigdor Zeitlin, Anash Pickers on 30th Aug 2021
Honestly, I do not possess the accurate technical vocabulary to describe the benefits of using the Blue Chip TD50 guitar pick.
I was tempted to try it, though… so I bought the TD50 and the TD35, both with a round bevel. I settled with the TD50 for its size, weight and feel.
After playing a Blue Chip pick for a month, using a standard pick is akin to driving a car on half-flat tires!
