Great guitar picks, excellent customer service.

THinner than my usual mando pick, works perfectly anyway
Posted by Michael Stadler 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.

loving the extra width
Posted by Steve Reed 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!

Excellent Pick for multiple guage strings and a variety of instraments.

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!

Great Pick
Posted by Unknown 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.

Game Changer/Worth Every Penny
Posted by Ken Ferrell on 21st Mar 2024
blue chip pics bring out the finest tonality your instrument is capable of.
It brings out the overtones and all the richness and the color and the vibrance of any stringed instrument. Especially if you have a high-quality instrument ,like a Taylor or Martin etc.… All of the magic comes out with this pic alone. There is no comparison to any other standard cheap pick. as an audiophile… The sound improvement with these pics is so dramatic it’s hard to express or explain… You just have to experience it to understand it! I personally found that new chords that I never thought of or learned would simply emerge because the combination of strings played are harmonized with this pic in a way that is not possible with other cheaper standard pics. I was super skeptical with a friend recommended this pricier pic then, when I played with it it blew my mind and I’ve been playing for 35 years and nothing compares I recommend you try them out if you are a serious musician or just want to get the best sound out of your instrument.

Just as I hoped it would be
Posted by Barb Collins on 30th Jan 2024
Very smooth bevel makes for speed and it seems to be made of good material that I hope will not break. I know a number of players who love Blue Chip picks. It’s just that they are SO expensive!! I’m glad I could have my name & phone number engraved on it in case I lose it! (Honor system just might work.) As for how well it works for the long haul, I have to try it for a year. But so far so good.

Blue chip picks
Posted by Darrin Moore on 10th Nov 2023
I have purchased several Blue Chip picks , they are pricy but to me worth the money , I have a handicap in my right hand which makes it hard to hold. A pick , Blue chip has has an Amazing grip due to the material used . It also holds up well , but the best thing is it produces the richest sound a Acoustic Guitar is Capable of . I started with a TAD 40 then 60 . I lost the first pick . It’s surprising how the thickness of the pick changes tone , I finally went to a TAD -1r which has 2 pointed ends to use and one rounded that makes easier for strumming but softer . I keep one pick on each guitar so when I pick up my guitars the preferred pick is there. I highly recommend Blue Chils picks as well as many other . You won’t be disappointed , spoil yourself and try one

My Blue Chip pick gives an interface with the strings that makes playing more joyful. The sound is always just right.
