Great pick!
Posted by mamoru masuda on 5th Jun 2020
I lost the pick I had been using for more than 5 years, so I purchased it again.
I'll keep using it for the rest of my life, being careful not to lose it.

worth evey dime wish i didnt wait so long
Posted by James M on 15th Mar 2020
It took me four years to pull the trigger an buy a blue chip pick
The price was the big issue but like the old saying goes you get what you pay for and Now that I have one, I wish I didn’t wait so long, it is worth the investment.
I use my tad-r1 on my acoustic an electronic guitars
On my Martin D35 it bring out the rich harmonics even more
On my Gibson j15 it softens the treble an rounds out the sound and on my Stratocaster it glides smoothly across the strings with out the plucky sound. The Pick Really helps the guitars shine through when recording. Hands done best pick I’ve owned and I will be back to order a few more in the future
Thanks Blue chip you got a great product, keep up the good work !

Pickin' & Grinnin'
Posted by Mike Brummitt on 9th Jul 2019
WOW! Just WOW! It took me a while to get up the gumption to pay $35 for a guitar pick BUT I am so glad I did! This thing is AMAZING! Fast off of the strings, incredible tone, and the gribibility is the best. My Blueridge BR-160 never sounded so good!

absolutely the best!!!!
Posted by zane glasscock on 9th Jan 2019
I've tried almost every pick out there in my 50 years of playing guitar and nothing I've tried compares to the blue chip pick. Genuine tortoise is close but heats up and grabs the strings after an hour or so of hard picking I wish blue chip made a brightly colored pick cuz the brownish color is hard to find when dropped on a dimly lit stage but other than that little gripe they are excellent!! I own about 5 of them and have given several away to friends. Fantastic product!!!

Outstanding Sound
Posted by Bob on 3rd Jan 2019
I'm an intermediate mandolin player and mostly play old time and bluegrass music. If you had asked me to bet that a pick would change my sound I would have bet against it. I received a Bluechip as a Christmas gift and in the two weeks since I've been amazed at how much more vibrant and 'shiny' notes are coming out of my instrument - trust me, I haven't changed in those two weeks. It's definitely worth the money!

Best pick for picking single notes
Posted by Susan on 20th Sep 2018
I've been playing guitar for only about 5 years and mostly play bluegrass. I love picking fiddle tune melodies and the first time I tried one of these picks I was sold. I felt like it enabled me to play faster because it glides over the strings so easily. Surprisingly, though it doesn't stick to the strings, it also doesn't slip out of my grip.
I recommend monogramming it so you can identify yours in a crowd because everyone will want to try it.

Great Pick!

Only been using this pick for about two weeks, but loving it so far. The size is great for me and the sound compared to most other picks is a lot warmer and smooth sounding. Worth the money!

The best that money can buy!
Posted by Cliff B on 1st Jan 2017
I've been using CT55s on my mandolin for a couple of years and thought I'd try this fractionally lighter version. For me, it works slightly better than the CT55. It's a close thing though and I switch between the two models quite happily. The most important thing as far as I'm concerned is the large triangular shape. I know many mandolin players like the SR series but I find the TAD / CT series easier to keep hold of(!) and more suitable for the tone I like. The rounded shape of the SR gives a fatter warmer sound but my instrument - a Weber Elite F5 - has enough warmth and rersponds better (in my hands anyway) to the more pointed picks.

I encourage players who buy my guitars to get blue chip picks, a great guitR deserves a great pick.
