The search is over
Posted by David Flaa on 1st Dec 2015
I have been playing guitar over 50 years and have always searched for the perfect pick. There may never be the perfect pick, but Blue Chip is as close to perfect as I ever found and I have tried them all

Bluechip flatpick
Posted by richard stekol on 25th Nov 2015
As many of us know, the right hand connection to our instrument
is critical, not only in the conveyance of phrasing, but tone.
Bluechip picks come in every possible thickness and shape, whichever maximizes the potential of your stroke in both of these aforementioned critical categories. Furthermore, it is no accident
that the service and attention to the player's need is of paramount
importance to this fine company, as this, along with their fine product, produces the best possible musical experience for us all.

Great pick, but...
Posted by SUSAN WATTERS on 29th Sep 2015
Loved the sound it produced on my guitar, but It was too small for me. Have ordered a larger pick which should be perfect.

good feeling
Posted by hbvanengelsdorp@gmail.com on 22nd Sep 2015
Living in Amsterdam Holland, it would not seem likely to order picks from Knoxville, Tenessee. But I do, even if one gets lost (or broken, while screw driving with it...). I keep playing with the Bluechip TAD 3R -50 on mu Telecaster because it just feels better!

Wouldn't wnat to use anything else.

Thought I was a shell user for life. I still enjoy using tortoise, but, the bluechip has the same snap and a smother feel for me. I really like the bluechip.

Great for Bluegrass Guitar
Posted by John M. on 1st Jul 2014
I've tried several Blue Chip picks for bluegrass, including the TPR and TD. Both are fine picks, but I've found that the TAD-3R 50 gives me good leverage, volume, and speed for bass runs, and great control over strums. To be honest, I was surprised that I liked a larger pick, but it has great speed and full tone.

TAD50-3R - great for mandolin too!
Posted by Ol' Andy on 27th Feb 2014
It took me some time to get over the cost of Blue-chips, but considering the value of my instruments and the money I spend on strings - why not get the best picks ?
I use Tad 40 & Tad 50 for flat-picking, but found that the 3R versions were great for mandolin too, giving power and accuracy. This last one was a gift for my mando player who finally succumbed to the advantages of the material, the bevel and the greater mass and comfort of a triangular pick.

TAD50-3R
Posted by Ol' Andy on 9th Jan 2014
Worn down by emails from the Goinses, I relented and ordered a TAD50 & 60 3r (this review is about the 50).
I use TAD 50s (speed bevel) for bluegrass rhythm but wondered whether the "R" would give me a slicker sound/feel when soloing.
The answer is ...slightly, but another thing I discovered was a radically more mellow rhythm and bass line sound on my Collings. So the "3R" pick will stay in my pick box for two or three more mellow numbers.
Unexpectedly the Saturday after my pick arrived I was asked to dep for a pal who does a restaurant gig and the TAD50-3R proved very suitable for mellow picking and crooning in an intimate environment.
The speed bevel was ordered but is somewhat less apparent on the radiused option.
