I have piles of picks at home, mandolin player, but only have six in my little, must have at hand plastic pouch and four of those are Blue Chips of different size and thickness but they all have the speed bevel. I've even imitated that bevel on one of my shell picks.
I often see comments about the price but good tone and smooth playing is worth it. Just don't carry them around in your pocket and risk losing one when you are fishing for pocket change!!!

This is my second Blue Chip. I bought a TAD-3R and had it speed beveled, so I wanted a rounded tip compliment... the round tip TD60 just became my main pick. Like everyone says... it is exactly like holding nothing, and sounds incredible. The more I think about the VESPEL material, and try to understand it, the more my head hurts... So, when I don't think about it, and I play, I just get real happy.
I know... I know... $35...
I took a friend out for dinner recently... bought a beer each and our meals... it came to $89 before tip... So, my friend's meal cost me $44.50... for less money than that I can have a pick that will never wear down and make me never worry about how the pick will sound. Seems kind of cheap when you view it as a lifetime investment...
Thank you for making such an incredible pick!

I love my TD60!! It has a perfect balance of top end and sparkle but is full and round enough to keep from being too brash and brittle. I find the dynamic range incredibly pleasing, a soft touch brings out a full bodied warm tone but still cuts through a mix when digging in! I find the TD60 also glides effortlessly when playing choppy funk rhythms on my strat, which is where I find I like this pick the most :)
I have been comparing these to an STP50 and CT55, I found this pick right in the middle tone wise. It’s mellower and fuller than the stp, but brighter that the CT55. These picks are all amazing, I keep the TD and STP in my pocket for jams,

Very fast material, and the speed bevel makes this pick fly off the strings. I try to use the heaviest pick possible for many different playing situations, these picks make that easy.

Years ago I quit using picks of both this shape and weight, but I heard Sierra Hull say she uses this pick on mandolin, so I thought it would be interesting to try. To my surprise, it’s very comfortable, easy to use, and has a great tone.

As a gypsy Jazzer, who uses the side of the pick, and needs something normal size, but very stiff, this is one of the best picks in the world! Get yourself one!

Can't review because the post office hasn't delivered it yet.

I have used every pick under the sun. I have a few authentic tortoise picks and the TD60 blows them out of the water. The only pick I’ll use from now on.

I'm a big fan of Blue Chip picks. Incrementally, I've ordered heavier picks going from TD 40, TD 45, TP 48 and now TD 60. The thicker the pick, the warmer the sound. Something about the texture of the picks minimizes slippage in your hand. Picks are very durable and seemingly will last forever if you can keep from losing.
