TP40

Before BCP. I was often dropping them, not now. The unique thing is the pick slides so smoothly over the strings, with minimal clicking. My theory is the material used has electrical properties which keeps the pick from slipping off your fingers. Makes my "Country Boy"Bourgeois Sing! Thanks Blue Chip!i

I have become a big fan of Blue Chip picks! I've got a TP-40, TP-50, TPR-40 and a TPS-40, I love all of them!!!

I am relatively new to BlueChip picks. Until about 6 months ago I was strictly used Fender picks, and would have never considered paying $35 for a pick. Well, a few months ago my local music store started carrying Gravity Picks. I tried a couple out and thought they were an improvement over what I was using, especially being able to keep them in place, but didn't like the tone vs. pick noise for playing acoustic. Even with that I bought a couple of the Gravity Gold picks. Even though a I liked the improvement I wasn't satisfied and did some research which lead me to BlueChip. I took a chance and bought one and absolutely feel in love with them. The tone is amazing, very clear, balanced, with extremely low pick noise. The BlueChip gives me a better & clearer tonal range, I can play very soft and still have note clarity, or dig in to get increased volume but still have the clarity. These picks have actually given more dimension to my playing & tone. Also the grip is the best so far. I did a number of comparison recordings between the Gravity Gold and the TP40, and there was really no comparison, The gravity Gold was darker, with more pick noise and didn't stay in place near as well. I have extremely dry skin and keeping the pick in place has always been a problem. The TP40 is my go-to pick, it's great for everything from strumming to single note lead lines, and it stays in place!!!

I have Many Blue Chip Flat Picks , each one has a different function , if I play Mandolin I use a TP-1R 50 or a CT-55 , On my Guitars I use the STP 40 and STP 50 , I also use a TP -1 50 and now I just Purchased two great TP 40's . What is different is these 2 Picks are Engraved with my Name and all the others I have are not. This is because BlueChip Picks can last for many years and seemingly will never wear out , I love the way they feel in my Right Hand and they fact they are practically devoid of side noise or Pick Click and most importantly that they self Lubricate during use . The right Hand Speed bevel is technology that is revolutionary in controlling the pick. Overall You won't find a better Pick anywhere else except at BlueChip .Picks , Every Pick they make is a Great Pick to Own for your Instrument !

I love these picks. I like holding the material of the pick and the TP size is great for me. I play tenor banjo and don't want too much brightness since the banjo is bright an loud already. The shape of the TP is perfect for me without a speed bevel. Just the right tone. I actually asked for a 35 thickness instead of 40, and that was no problem at all for them to produce. Great service! I bought two of these and I think they will last a very long time, but whenever I do need to replace them, I'll definitely be ordering the exact same picks again.

I found the tone of the TP40 to be thin to be honest. I love the way it doesn't get caught up in the strings - it really helps out with the fast picking. However, it is probably too thin to provide the meaty, rich sound I'm used to with the thicker Dunlop Tortex picks I use. Great for fast picking, but doesn't deliver a rich, full tone.

I like this pick for staying put in your fingers and the sound from my guitar, however, it does not fit well between my fingers. I need a pick that is a little shorter from point to top. I have trouble determining which pick would solve this problem. Any suggestions would be helpful. Thanks

Ordered my first BlueChip TAD-40 a couple of months ago and it is quite astounding in the vibrant tone that my Martin D35 now makes. It is almost effortless picking now and the TP-40 is great for the softer style of country and bluegrass picking I play. HANDS DOWN,,, the best sounding pick I've ever owned (and I have about 200). It is more expensive than any other pick I own... but smoother across the strings and better sounding too. I keep these picks on my person at all times, so they're available whenever I need them.

Like most guitarists, I've tried just about every pick in existence, all in the never-ending quest to find the perfect one -- you know, the one that delivers ballsy tone and great hand-feel. The Blue Chip pick comes close, delivering superbly meaty tone while gliding across the strings. But it's that latter attribute that also delivers the only negative I can say about this pick: it feels slippery between the fingers. Of course, other reviewers haven't mentioned this, so I've come to the conclusion that it's my light grip on the pick that's contributing to this issue -- but it's an issue I don't have with some other brands of picks.
