TP48

Super fast, super slick, super resilient.

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.

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!

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.

Smooth and clean, fast picking! Couldn't recommend it more!

After many years of playing whatever pick was laying around, and a number of years of wondering about bluechip I decided to give them a try. Best decision I’ve made for my playing. It isn’t that it sounds sooo much better, although it does have a great tone, it is more the feel and smooth attack and feel while playing. Whether acoustic or electric there isn’t another pick that works better.

I play mandolin and guitar and have tried and used many picks (just like most of you). There are several that I like and continue to use...but none like my Bluechip. The tonal quality and the ability to maintain fluidity of play is immediately apparent when playing with my Bluechip.

I’ve used a lot of picks and I don’t think anything compares to a Bluechip. The TP 48 fits my play style is easy to grip with amazing tone.

Was highly skeptical about purchasing such an expensive pick. But I have to admit, I am thoroughly impressed. Real improvement in tonal quality and very good for flat picking. Just praying I don’t lose it!!
