Awesome guitar pick

Great pick and they accommodated my request for a 35 width for no extra charge.

Wow! nice pick. i was very sceptical at first.
Posted by David Reed on 14th Jun 2021
I seen lots of reviews on Blue Chip picks. I was using Dunlop Prime Tone sculpted picks 1.3mm before I got a Blue Chip pick. I like the feeling of the pick between your fingers. It glides effortlessly off the strings but still not slippery in your fingers. The interaction with the pick and strings are not noisy or plastic like. It’s just smooth and makes for a great tone. I WILL buy again. I really don’t see using anything else…. It’s enhanced my ability right away. I feel like my playing will improve by using this pick… especially with smoothness and speed.

the hype is real
Posted by Pat McClimans on 31st Mar 2021
I bought a Blue Chip to prove they weren't what everyone says they are. It was worth the $40 to be able to shut down internet forums everywhere I searched.... then I played the damn thing. Out of nowhere I have no picks that I like to play besides my Blue Chip.
You could seriously search for "Blue Chip Pick Review Praise" and just apply whatever you read to how I feel about my Blue Chip pick

Blue Chip Picks
Posted by Michael G. Havens on 7th Jan 2021
The Blue Chip Pick is the Fastest off the string I have ever used. They soften the sound just a little compared Tortoise Picks but much faster off the string.
They last seaming long, long time compared to all other picks.
I highly recommend Blue Chip Picks for most all styles of Flat Picking.

The Best of the Best
Posted by Jim M. on 4th Jan 2021
I play flatpick guitar, and I've tried most of the picks on the market. I've played my trusty 3R 40 picks and moved to something else several times - always to return to my good old 3R 40's. BlueChips are like no other flatpicks. They are without a doubt the best picks in the world of flatpick guitar. I have a drawer full of excellent picks I will never use again. The TAD-3R 40 is definitely "MY PICK." Even the tortoise must take second place in this race.

Another custom pick
Posted by Jim Nikora on 12th Oct 2020
I asked about how to get a pick in a specific thickness by email and got a prompt reply - easy as adding a note to the order. New pick arrived 2 days after placing the order - just as I wanted and now it is all I use. I'll probably have to get a spare. :-)

I like this pick
Posted by Keithro on 26th Sep 2020
I'm a guitar player and like using rounded edges. To me it helps the pick roll off the strings better when I strum the acoustic guitar. I don't care for a harsh sound when I strum. This pick is BIG and easy to hold onto. When I play the boom chuck bluegrass rhythm it's easy to pick out the root and 5th note of the chords I'm playing. So the note strum note stum not only sounds good it's easy to do with this pick. Lead guitar players may also like this pick but I'm reviewing it as a acoustic rhythm guitar player because that is what I mostly use it for.

Average Pick
Posted by John F Putnam on 22nd Sep 2020
Got the pick for a mandolin. The sound is a little on the treble side, and I would probably like a heavier version of this shape. It's a good pick but not as smooth sounding some heavy picks of the same shape. I would try maybe one other BC pick but cost will not allow me to try several that I may or may not use.

For players of any level
Posted by Bluegrass Picker on 9th Sep 2020
BC Picks are not just for professional players. These picks don't move around on you. They stay in position. I got the TAD40-3R to try to blend the Kenny Smith 40 and the TP 48 used by Bryan Sutton. I liked the 40 thickness, but the TP 48 size. Worked perfect for me. I can play much faster bluegrass songs with this pick and play more clean.

It's all about the speed bevel
Posted by Dane on 3rd May 2020
There's something unusual in a good way about these picks. It's the way they slide off the strings. The material and the bevel give the pick a smooth sliding feel coming across the strings. You can turn your wrist to change the attack and release angle. It causes a different feel compared to all the previous picks I've tried and a smoother sound. Hard to describe, easy to use.
