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.

Blue Chip picks have long been my favorite for flatpicking Bluegrass. I recently gave an SR40 as a gift to a Jazz guitarist - it was a hit!

I honestly couldn't believe how good and smooth these picks feel!! Really the other reviews are right there is zero pick noise which let's you concentrate on your instrument!! Also they don't move at all in your fingers! Finally I'm a lefty with a left handed beveled pick it really does matter! I immediately started playing things I never played before!! Thank you for these Awesome picks!!!

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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.
