Product Description

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.

  1. The search is over 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 10th Jun 2022

    As a player and a teacher I always realized that a pick is one of the most important tools in the guitar players arsenal. This is the shape and feel that is perfect for my Acoustic guitar. Nicely rounded to glide over the strings and big enough to play single notes with accuracy . I can feel and hear the difference when I switch back to my old pick. It has definitely made playing a lot more fun.


  2. Blue Chip SR40 is my new Go To Guitar Pick 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 8th Apr 2022

    Why has the Blue Chip SR 40 become my new go to guitar pick?
    Perfect size and play-ability.
    Easily held and easy to hold on to.
    Rounded corners give it the perfect shape for attacking the strings and smoothness in strumming and cording.


  3. Blue Chip SR 40 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 11th Jan 2022

    As an intermediate mandolin player, the SR 40 pick has really helped me improve my picking, amazing! I will be ordering another model soon!


  4. My Pick for the Best Pick 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 5th Jan 2022

    The SR size and shape fits well in my hand. I use it for flatpicking, but it’s large enough to double for mandolin. Matthew is kind enough to let me special-order SR35s. They’re stiff without being bulk and they bring out a little more brightness from my D18GE.


  5. I love the BlueChip SR-40 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 22nd Jun 2021

    The shape of this pick is traditionally favored by mandolin players because the rounded corners help facilitate faster
    Picking on the short mandolin strings. I use it for guitar for the same reason. The SR-40 flows off the strings like butter,
    Speeding up single note runs as well as chord changes.


  6. Great companion to any great guitar 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 30th Dec 2020

    This is my forth pick, even though the first one is in great condition I still wanted a back up plus I have several guitars and like keeping a blue chip with my main ones.


  7. BlueChip SR Picks 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 21st Dec 2020

    Blue chips just plain sound good. I’m surprised more players don’t choose SR. How many times have you heard players slay they use a rounded corner of a teardrop pick? SR’s have 3 rounded beveled corners.

    I believe players mistakenly seek out thickness when what they really want is stiffness. Even though 40 is the thinnest SR advertised, BlueChip will custom make a 35 - just ask for 35 in the comments tab at checkout.

    BlueChip SR35 helps me play my best.


  8. Final piece of the puzzle 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 18th Sep 2020

    Perfect size and shape for me. Brings out all the tone on my CB acoustic with Elixir Polyweb strings, but ALSO works great with the Tele and mandolin....had a TD40 (gave it to my son) , and have just gravitated toward the bigger and more rounded profile. I suspect this will be the only pick I ever use moving forward. Cost not an issue and well worth it IMO


  9. Try One 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 7th Jan 2020

    People always ask “What kind of strings do you use?” They should be asking “What kind of pick do you use?” I believe flatpicks have much more influence on tone than say, 80-20 or phosphor bronze strings. That being said there is no better pick than Blue Chip. When your playing skill advances you tend to want heavier strings and stiffer picks. Blue Chip picks do not flex, period. And, whatever they’re made of, they sound great. Much better than Tortex or Fenders. Add to that the bevel and the round feel of the SRs and you’ve got a pick as great as one made from an endangered species. They even happily custom made an SR 35 for me. Try one.


  10. I’ve used a million picks... 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 19th Sep 2019

    We all have. There’s an idea that you should buy strings that are expensive, to put on your expensive guitar and use $.50 picks. But having a quality pick changes the tone of your guitar. If I lost my Bluechip right now, there would be an order by the end of the day.

    They feel and sound better, it’s worth it
