The TP is our classic triangular pick in a 40/1000 of an inch thickness(1.0mm). The TP is the same size as the TPR, but has slightly sharper corners. All of our picks are professionally machined, hand beveled, and laser etched.
Quarters, Nickels and Dimes, if included in the pictures, are for size reference only. They are not etched on the picks or included with the sale. To use this reference, please place a coin on your current non-Bluechip pick and then compare to the pictures of our picks with coins on top of them. This will help you choose the pick that is closest to your current favorite size and shape.

I have several other Blue Chip picks, but after trying about a million options a few years ago, I found that the TP40 worked best for me. I'm right handed, but I prefer a left hand bevel. I now have at least a dozen TP40's, and can't imagine using anything else. I used to completely wear out a Tortex pick in a matter of days, but I have yet to see any appreciable wear on any of my Blue Chips, and so far I've never lost one. Knock on wood!

I've been playing Blue Chips for several years. I love the feel in my hand and the smoothness of cross picking and alternate picking. I even use them on my electrics.

I've been pickin' a TP 50 for 2-3 years now and thought I'd like some more flexability in my pickin' hand and a more trebley tone so I went with a TP 40. I got to say I'm pleased. I have a brighter tone, and more flex in my pickin' hand. So I bought 2, one for acoustic and one for electric. We'll see where I'm at in another 2-3 years. My original TP 50 still looks brand new, and plays and sounds like the day I bought it. I play it everyday. I love that I can pick up a TP any way and get to pickin' without any hiccups. It feels the same every way. I imagine I'll get 10+ years out of a pick. I'd highly recommend any Bluechip pick you like. They're worth it for days if you're not the lose a pick kinda person.

Been using TP 40’s for a long time. The “40” seems to be the one that sounds right on so many different guitars. Other models (35 and 50) get used to but the 40 is the go to.

Slippery across the strings yet grippy when playing. I LIKE it.

I have the TP 40. This pick is so much better than I hoped. It glides across the strings, stays in your fingers with no slipping or hard gripping.
It also seems to have a natural compression the evens out string tones so that that B string doesn’t ring out in the sometimes loud and harsh manner that it can.
I highly recommend these picks. Is the best pick I have used in 50 years of playing.

My headline should explain it all! My first was a TD40, I liked it so much I purchased the TP40 for the larger triangle shape. I have tried many picks, some higher end and still use them but the BlueChip is a cut above! I like the sound it generates and the feeling when it strikes the strings. The BlueChip company is AAA+ with great communication and fast shipping. All in all well worth the price!

Excellent in all regards. Perfect size, perfect thickness for my old acoustic Fender. Worth every penny!

I love the TP40's. They are smooth as butter. Love the fact that it has 3 picking edges and all of them sound equally good.
