The TP-1R is our classic triangular pick in a 60/1000 of an inch thickness(1.50mm) with ONE ROUNDED CORNER. 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.

I love this pick because it has a real warn sound on the rounded side, great for soloing without much pick noise. And the other sides are amazing for pop and other things that require definition but doesn't take the tone away!
I used to play wegen mostly, now this is my go to pick!

These are the best flatpicks I have ever used

Play a Merrill and a Martin. I switch between Bluchips and Wegens. I like the white Wegens for jams at night, in case I drop the pick.

If you haven't tried this pick then it's impossible to know the difference it will create in your playing. While technique is so much more than a pick, it's crucial to have something that is not in the way of your perception of sound. Most or all of the picks I have tried during the 40 years I have been playing, they come with either too much pick noise or to some extent get stuck in the strings. In the playing style of say intricate fast single lines or rapid ringing arpeggios, smooth or percussive rhythms on chords, this pick is the thing - it glues to your fingers, yield to nothing, yet it never becomes rigid or clumsy. I sincerely wish a had this pick a long time ago. But better late than never. And inspiring to get to know something that actually works and makes a difference in this world where words generally sound more interesting than the actual thing they describe. Try it.

I work at a major music retail store, which doesn't carry these picks. I've been on a quest for years to find a pick that didn't impede my progress as a guitarist. I have a pretty considerable collection of boutique guitar picks, most of which I like, some that I really love. After getting this pick in the mail and spending some time with it (I altered the speed-bevel on the pointed tips to my personal taste), it has become my FAVORITE pick in my entire collection. It had BETTER be! It's the most expensive! My co-workers think I'm nuts for spending $40 on a single pick. But seriously, $35 is a minuscule price to pay to make a dramatic difference in the playability of your setup. Your picking hand will thank you for your investment. This is the first pick that I've used that really felt like an extension of my body. The pick grips your fingers but slides off the strings like it's covered in butter. I can see this being my go-to pick for a long time!

Prior to ordering a BC-pick I have been playing a V-pick 1.5mm large rounded for about a year. I really like the feel and sound of V-picks but have had constant problems with wear, *clink* sounds and pick noise. The edge of the V would become worn and make scratching sounds and V-picks always *clink*.
The BC pick has none of that. Fantastic tone, surprisingly bright for the thickness. No wear what so ever yet. Glass like surface with extreme speed. Great grip. Minimal *clinking* sound. Just awesome.
Pick problem solved.

I ordered this pick as a gift for a picking buddy of mine, so I haven't played this particular pick, but I personally own (2)different straight picks, and (2) different thumb picks. I have been playing music over 30 years and have never used anything comparable to these BlueChip picks in tone, or in wear. I wish I knew how many are playing a Bluechip now because they tried mine out.

I've had many picks from you folks and this one fits me great, although all Blue Chip Picks are good, this one suits me great

I recently got my TP-1R 60 in the mail. Man its awsome!!! I know many mandolin players that swore bluechip was the only thing worth using,but at first was skeptical that it would be worth the 35 bucks. Well I'm now a believer, I was amazed at how impressive the tone of the pick was. So if your wondering if it's worth spending the money for, take it from me. Best 35 dollars I've ever spent on my music!!

The most truly awesome pick I've ever played. This pick allows me to draw out the most tone from my guitars.With the slightest turn between thumb and index finger,I can have the radius corner striking the strings with the sweetest of tone !
