This is so far my favorite pick. Like the one rounded edge for tonal variations. I play bluegrass music and bought the TP1R 50. Thickness is perfect for great tone.

I recommend these picks to everyone and have used one myself for the last few years with my mandolin. I just lost my last one and had to order a new one right away.

BlueChip picks are great. I ended up deciding to exchange the 50 gauge for a TP-1R 60. BlueChip made the exchange easy. I would still like to have a 50, and I will probably order an STP50. For the TP size, I’m a little more comfortable with the thicker 60. Great quality picks.

I've currently have a TP50-1R, TP60-1R, and a CT55. I had a TD50 and even though I've always used teardrop shaped picks in the past, for some reason the material Blue Chip uses and the way it interacts with the string makes me prefer the larger size picks and that preference now allows me greater accuracy when alternate picking without posting. I give all 3 types of picks I have now 5 stars (see those reviews if you're interested) but the TP50-1R is the best all-round pick for acoustic, electric, or arch top. The sound is crystal clear, the feel of it inspires confidence that you will be accurate in your picking and the one rounded corner is a wonderful and useful option. The other two are also pick-heaven for me but if I had to order another one for backup it would be the TP50-1R. Just the greatest pick ever!

Great sounding and feeling pick. I love shell, but no pick glides off strings like a BC. Expensive! But worth it. I really like the rounded corner as well.

I purchased this pick for playing bluegrass and swing guitar.
I chose this pick for the 2-beveled points and the rounded shoulder and the thickness.
I use all of them depending on the needs of the tune being played.
Really nice pick, good thickness, nicely balanced, never slips in my fingers and it produces strong, woody tones from my Martin Hd-28.
I have owned 2 CT-55's (10+years) for my mandolins and love them. They show almost no ware at all.
Although I love a heavy pick for guitar, I may look to pick up a TP-1R 40 in the future as the feel may be even better.
Do I recommend BlueChip picks...Absolutely, just protect it like shell.

This thing is lovely! If anything, the next one for me will be a smaller one, but that's just how to hold it. Definitely going to get at least another, just not sure which thickness yet. But the sweet tone this thing lets pop out of the instrument as it lets go of the strings is awesome. Ridiculous price, especially buying from the UK and effectively paying 50 GBP for a pick, but still soooo worth it, especially if you're serious about recording. Will guard with my life. lol

This pick is the perfect size and feel. I mostly use the pointed edges, but it's nice to have the rounded tip for the times I want a darker sound. I've been using this pick for everything from flatpicking to jazz, and on all my guitars. These are the best picks I've ever used.

This pick delivers. You virtually can’t drop this pick when you strum. The material it is made of gives you a fuller sound on any guitar. Buy one and you will lose it. Buy two and you’ll always have the pick. You will be more mindful of putting the pick(s) in a safe place. Peter picked a peck of piper pickles...

It feels an extension of my hand and creates such an array of colours while remaining a or vision tool-just brilliant!
