The SR is an extremely rounded triangle shaped pick in a 40/1000th of an inch(1.0mm) thickness. The bottom corner radius is greater than the top two corners. Our picks are all precision machined and hand beveled for the highest quality.
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 no idea how many different picks I’ve tried in 40 years of playing, but this is my new favorite. It’s probably too expensive but that’s sort of subjective. It sounds great. It feels even better, no slip! I don’t loose a lot of picks so unless durability turns out to be poor, I imagine a handful of these will last me until the end. I have the SR40 and highly recommend you try them.

I've used a TP48 for guitar for a while (with fantastic results) but I prefer the rounder, fatter shape of the SR style picks for mandolin. I finally broke down and ordered one (with a round bevel) and it arrived today. Let me tell you, I don't think I'll be using anything else for mandolin EVER again. Everything you've heard about Blue Chip picks is absolutely true; the grip, comfot while playing, smoothness/speed, lack of pick noise and longevity are unmatched, while the tone that they help you coax out of your instrument is truly unbelievable. They're a real game changer and I can't recommend them enough. If you're still on the fence about getting one, wonder no longer. They're worth every penny. You won't regret it.

This is a review for a SR35 with custom .89mm thickness. I wanted a little more give when strumming an acoustic guitar, and the slightly thinner pick provides that. The bevel edge gives me smoother transition between strings. I feel I get better volume control using this pick versus the standard shape. Recommended.

After trying hundreds of different picks over the 45 years I've been playing mandolin, I finally found the Holy Grail, the Blue Chip SR40 with a round bevel. And a special thanks to Matthew Goins for taking the time to personally reply to my questions concerning exactly which Blue Chip would be right for me. First class product, first class customer service. Thank you!

I really like the tone this pick brings and the lack of the clicking I get from most of the picks of this thickness

I’ve purchased a few different varieties of blue chip pics and have found this particular one to be my favorite. It’s rounded corners allow a smooth transition from string to string while projecting great clarity..

The tone is simply the best from any pick I have ever used and the shape is just the right size for my liking. At $71 Canadian funds (includes shipping) I will be taking very good care of my investment…
