This Pick Actually Makes a Difference
Posted by Stan Watkins on 18th Nov 2019
On the recommendation of 5 Watt World star (Keith Williams), I decided to give this pick a try. $35 for a single pick is a huge leap of faith, especially if it isn't personally signed by a long deceased famous rock star. I hoped it would fatten up the tone on a couple of my electric guitars somewhat, but I had my doubts. Happily, this story ends well. It really does make a difference in the tone of my guitars. It even sounds fatter than an equally thick Dunlop Tortex pick, so there must be some kind of special mojo in the formula. Don't think I'll be ordering a couple of dozen anytime soon, but I will get at least one more to have in case this one is lost (or "borrowed").

Not good
Posted by Umer on 5th Nov 2019
I got the TPR60 with the speed bevel, it does not sound good on acoustic. I'd gotten the 1.5mm for a warm sound but I think I should have tried the rounded edge instead of the speed bevel. The TAD60-1R with speed bevel sounded much warmer on acoustic, from the attack to the decay.
Its not without its uses on electric on the higher frets though.
Lesson: Don't engrave things on a blue chip pick till you know you chose the right one for you.

Best Picks Ever!
Posted by Dave D on 20th Sep 2019
I'm a bit of a pick collector, and have tested many, many picks over the 40 years or so I have played and taught guitar. I have three Blue Chip picks now which each give me a different sound, and I absolutely LOVE them. I hardly use any of my other picks these days. Blue Chip picks have almost zero friction, making them a good percentage faster, and the tone is fantastic. Thank you, Blue Chip!

Great quality pick!
Posted by Bobby Shepherd on 25th May 2019
These Bluechip picks are awesome! I thought at first that they were just overpriced accessories that were unneeded. But after using them for 3 to 5 years with little to no wear, great sounds and performance, then I couldn’t be more happy with them. I’ll stick with this pick going forward!

Totally versatile
Posted by Pete. on 14th Sep 2018
I was first informed about the TPR60 BlueChips by the New Orleans guitarist Molly Reeves, who is one of the greatest contemporary exponents of early jazz and swing music. Her rhythm playing is some of the most tasteful you could hear. She often uses TPR60 picks with the Shake 'em up Jazz Band and the New Orleans Vipers.
Because of the bevel on these they can also be used incredibly well for lead lines and will give the same sort of control and effect that you get when using the shoulder side of a normal pick Stevie Ray Vaughan style.
They are very expensive for us here in the UK with import duty, but worth every cent even so. Roll on a trade deal with the U.S.A. and I'll buy me a load more!

Don't want to use anything else

I can play ok with almost any pick but nothing delivers the nuance, warm tone and easy playing TPR60 does. Without a doubt my favorite pick for the electric bass. Nothing else is even close.

My favorite Gypsy Jazz plectrum
Posted by Ric Molina on 24th Jul 2018
The shape and thickness of this beveled pick is really comfortable for Manouche playing which requires a stout pick and an energetic technique. What sets this pick apart from all the others in my estimation is how the surface adheres to my finger tips allowing me to hold the pick very loosely without the pick slipping out of my hand. This allows me to keep a very relaxed wrist and keeps the pick in the optimum position for playing. Great product.

Balanced tone, smooth tremeloing and a firm grip
Posted by James Jones on 12th Jul 2018
Last year I stopped in at Carter's Vintage Guitars in Nashville and tested a Blue Chip pick with several of their high end, custom mandolins. It sounded fine, but I told them I couldn't decide whether to buy one, given the high price. I said I would have to "have my head examined" to pay that high a price for a single pick! They smiled as I left the store.
Last month, I decided to buy one directly through the website, the TPR 60 just to decide "once and for all" if the Blue Chip Pick was as good as some people claimed. Whether they are worth the high price ($35 plus tx) is a personal decision, but the one I bought produces the best tone of any pick I have ever bought. The TPR 60 produces a balanced tone, smooth tremeloing, and a firm grip that keeps it from slipping from my hand. The Blue Chip is my "go to" pick, and is now my favorite. I can see why people like them so much. Losing track of a Blue Chip pick is always a danger, and they are expensive to replace, so you have to be careful about where you put it after playing.
