TPR50 - 3R Simply the Best.
Posted by Frank on 22nd Dec 2020
The TAD50 - 3R has a very smooth attack and fast. The size allows me to choke up or down to get the desired sound I want to voice songs accordingly.

The tone I really like !!
Posted by todd ball on 13th Apr 2020
The rounded corners takes the tinny sound out of the guitar. Normal play with rounded edges of the TD pick, but really like the TAD 3 R. Its larger and easier to hold. I get the more mellow sound from the rounded corners that I enjoy. Play all bluegrass and the 50 is perfect. Going to try a 60 eventually, but like the 50 so much, not sure that it could be as good, or any better.

Best Pick EVER!
Posted by Max Winkels on 17th Mar 2020
The TAD50-3R is the best mandolin pick I've ever used. It just feels good in my hand and doesn't slip. It provides excellent attack and follow through on the strings, resulting in great tone.

Once you try a Blue Chip You can't go back
Posted by Kendall Whitney on 29th Oct 2019
These picks feel great in the hands. I don't know how to describe the feeling, but not slippery and not rough. They also sound like better. My teacher put one into my hands and I've had a hard time going back to other picks.

Best mandolin Blue Chip pick
Posted by Bill Perry on 16th Sep 2019
I ordered a TAD50-3R Blue Chip pick to play mandolin and it is excellent.. ...I took the advice of another mandolin player....3 nicely rounded corners that enable me to play the mandolin faster with more control......Best picks.....I am very pleased... These great picks help my 79 year old fingers to hold the picks better....They are worth the cost.....

TAD-50 3R is an amazing pick!!
Posted by Mike Casey on 14th May 2019
I love the speed bevel and the equal round corners allow you to pick it up and just play. The pick is very fluid and smooth! I would recommend this pick to any bluegrass player!

Simply the best...
Posted by Steve Bennett on 3rd Sep 2018
Yes, it's a cliché and yes, they're expensive but there's nothing to touch these picks; feel, tone, quality of workmanship, the lot.
I use the TAD50-3R for mandolin and while Wegen dedicated mandolin picks (from Europe) are good, these are better.
Just don't lose one!

A Flatpicker's Delight
Posted by Mark Wilkerson on 2nd Jul 2018
The TAD-50 is a "tad" larger than the TPR-50. The rounded tips and beveled edges of the pick result in a warm, smooth, tight and punchy tone.

A Loyal Customer Since 2008.
Posted by Jeff on 1st Jan 2018
I selected this pick because I generally use TD picks for strumming, but since this pick has a more rounded tip, I knew it would be less bright and warmer than my TD picks for lead or single-string playing. I am very satisfied with the sound and playability of this pick. Perhaps because of its shape, I believe I can feel it sliding off the strings with less friction than other picks. It sticks to your fingers, but slides off the strings! Of course, Blue Chip is a great company and it has been a pleasure dealing with them whenever I've needed to write or talk to someone directly. I've never completed a transaction with Blue Chip and been unhappy. I want to like my TD picks more, but I really love this shape of TAD-3R. At any shape, in terms of quality, Blue Chips are the best picks ever made.
