Product Description

The TP is our classic triangular pick in a 48/1000 of an inch thickness(1.22mm). The TP is the same size as the TPR, but has slightly sharper corners. All of our picks are professionally machined, hand beveled, and laser etched.

 

Quarters, Nickels and Dimes, if included in the pictures, are for size reference only. They are not etched on the picks or included with the sale. To use this reference, please place a coin on your current non-Bluechip pick and then compare to the pictures of our picks with coins on top of them. This will help you choose the pick that is closest to your current favorite size and shape.

  1. Hands doen best pick out there. 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 21st Nov 2024

    This pick definitely is just what I’ve been looking for where I noticed the second I picked it up my accuracy was improved my tone was improved and it just sticks to you finger. I was turned onto these by another bluegrass picker and this item does not disappoint and it never wears. I strongly recommend this item.


  2. If there’s perfection, I think I’ve found it. 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 20th Nov 2024

    This is an excellent all around playing pick with great sound. Comparing it against a TP501R and a TP40 played on a year old D18 strung with Martin Retro bluegrass strings it lands right in the middle sound wise and excels over both playing. The TP50 is warm and loud but it doesn’t let the treble strings sing out. The TP40 is nice to play with but the sound gets a bit harsh and jangly, especially when pushed hard. The TP48 takes the best of the two for great tone and adds fast, smooth on/off. The pick thickness, at least for me, is perfect. Love the full deep tone it produces from every string up and down the neck.


  3. Love my bluechip picks! 5 Star Review

    Dropped my first bluechip in a porta potty at Billy String's Renewal Festival in Colorado. So I bought 2 this time around just in case that happens again!

    The pick is wonderful and is the perfect blend of flex and sturdiness. Make sure you hold it in the right direction though

    My favorite picks ever - bought a few TP48s and have been loving them, the beveled edges are great for flat picking.


  6. More than I expected 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 8th Oct 2024

    I can rip up a pick in no time at all so when I heard about Blue chip picks, I was interested in learning more. The price was a little shocking but I figured it certainly would not run me broke.
    As of now, I've played close to 20 hours with this pick and not a single scratch on it!
    I love how it plays and feels in my fingers.
    After seeing an interview on YouTube with the owner, I now understand where the price comes from. I've been a machinist for 40 years and I appreciate the fixturing and work that goes into these picks.
    I am totally pleased beyond what I expected.
    You've got a new loyal customer here!
    Thank you.

  8. super fast pick 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 24th Sep 2024

    I've tried a lot of picks and this is up there with the best of them. It is VERY bright though. When I initially started using the tp48 on a collings cw with a bone saddle, it was uncomfortably bright. I went ahead and ordered a tad60 since those should bring more bottom end back and I usually prefer 1.5mm width. But then I switched saddles on the guitar to a FWI one I've had for a while and that focused the lows and low mids which made the tp48 nearly perfect. I use red bear, primetones, real tortoiseshell, adamas graphites (2mm), and now these blue chips. They all do something different, but the blue chips are super fast in a way that's hard to explain. Feels glassy. I've had well worn adamas picks get that way too but it takes a while to wear them in and then they're almost done. These should last forever. The TAD60 I got a week later is predictably less bright and super stiff and it's good too, but definitely a little different.

    It's worth it.


  9. One Pick to Rule Them All! 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 12th Sep 2024

    I was hesitant to spend $35 on a pick, but after a week or so of use, I purchased a backup! These picks are made with the highest quality, and the craftsmanship comes through with every note. I got this model because it's the same one Billy Strings uses, and while I can't quite play like Billy, the confidence I have when I strike the strings makes me play better. I will be a lifetime user for all of my acoustic instruments!


  10. Best pick I’ve used 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 9th Sep 2024

    I recently switched from using thicker licks to a thinner pick. The TP-48 is the absolute perfect pick for not only tone, but size as well. I always get holes drilled in my picks now to make them lighter and easier to grip, and these picks just sound absolutely phenomenal.
