  1. Best picks ever made 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 20th Mar 2025

    I have a whole collection of BlueChip pics. They're the only ones I use now. Without question they are the greatest asset that any guitar player/mandolin-mandola player-octave mandolin-mandocello/banjo player/bass player could ever ever want. I play all of these instruments and I enjoy using different versions of BlueChip picks for all of them. Very grateful to BlueChip for all of the options and customer service provided. The only thing I would add is how about some other better T-shirts designs and some more hats! ;-)


  2. Good size and shape 4 Star Review

    Posted by on 17th Jan 2025

    Good sounding pick. I was hesitant to spend $35 for a pick but I am happy with it. Same size as a 50 year old Ovation pick I like to use. I expected the surface to be tackier. That would be an improvement for me. Anything to improve my grip on it.


  3. Thinner Tad-1R 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 10th Jan 2025

    I have been using a Tad 50 1-R and a CT 55 for several years. I ordered the Tad 40 1-R to use on a smaller guitar with extra light strings. Mission accomplished! I really appreciate the free engraving, shipping, and pick pouch. I also play tenor banjo and Blue Chips work great there too. Thanks for great products and customer service.


  4. TAD-1R40=Fantastic 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 9th Jan 2025

    The TAD-1R40 is a fantastic addition to the pick arsenal!! A distinct difference between the sharp points and the one rounded point! Demonstrating it to some friends and they asked what was different…….they could hear it!! The rounded point “mellowed out” some of the brightness of the sharp points and really does make a difference on multiple guitars I have tried it on.


  5. Great guitar picks, excellent customer service. 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 25th Oct 2024

    Bluechip picks are top of the line picks. Customer service has quick turnaround. They accommodate reasonable custom requests quickly.


  6. THinner than my usual mando pick, works perfectly anyway 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 3rd Jun 2024

    I resisted Blue Chips for years (cost!). A student gave me my first two and I'm over my reticence.
    Whatever the material is, it doesn't wear at all that I've seen. Best, it produces great tone without drag. It leaves the strings at exactly the nanosecond you want.
    My first with one round tip was a 55, so I thought I'd try the 40. Despite only using quite thick picks on mando for years, I now prefer this 40 over others.
    I prefer this to tortoises a friend gave me decades ago too, which was not predictable.


  7. loving the extra width 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 29th Apr 2024

    I've been using TPR's & TP-1R's since 2008, and have ALWAYS loved them. Just figured I couldn't like any pick any more than those. Just started on the mandolin recently and decided to give a TAD-1R a try. Really like the extra grip & stability that the extra width brings. Have started using it on guitar as well. All fantastic products!


  8. Excellent Pick for multiple guage strings and a variety of instraments. 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 18th Apr 2024

    I have become quite the pick snob these days and having a lefty beveled pick for both mando and guitar is great. I use it for mandocello as well. great tone, feel and versatility. Bravo!


  9. Great Pick 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 8th Apr 2024

    I really like this pick for my first Blue Chip pick. In time I’d like to try a little thicker-heavier pick for my dreadnaught.


  10. Another great choice! 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 28th Mar 2024

    A recording work with a very special meaning for me. Thanks to Matthew for his loving treatment.
