5 Gave me the confidence I didn’t even know I was lacking.
Posted by Stephen Santiago on 13th Aug 2025
I first heard of BlueChip years ago and knew big names were using your products. The price threw me off for a long time and I was so sure I could find something comparable for a fraction of the price. I tried about 100 different picks over the years and what made it difficult was that I have dyshidrotic eczema which required me to literally have 4 completely different picks for each season and varying moisture levels throughout the year. My condition made it hard to not have a pick slip out of my fingers most of the time. One day I did the math and realized I had spent way more money than a single BlueChip so I figured it was time to try one. This is the only pick that has something about the texture to where I do not need to switch depending on the humidity in the environment I am playing in. I also used to lose about 2 picks a week and I have not lost my one BlueChip yet. I’ll probably order a few backups. Thanks for making such a great product!

5 I like it,
Posted by Don on 13th Aug 2025
It’s hard to find the words. I find that my pick handles easier, kinda buttery feel to it. I’d say it has a cleaner, fuller sound than the green tortex that I’m used to.

5 made a bigger change to my sound than new strings
Posted by Unknown on 10th Aug 2025
I have a Martin dred that has always just had a bit of a dull acoustic quality. Tried new bridge pins, new strings, bone saddle, under saddle plate mate, you name it. Switching to a blue chip pick made a bigger difference than all the other modifications. Even my non musical wife instantly noticed a difference in a blind shootout with other picks. Only downside is that I don’t want to use anything else now.

5 Better than the others
Posted by Unknown on 7th Aug 2025
I’ve used lots of picks over the 50 years I’ve played guitars, and blue chip picks stand out. There is something about their feel and tone that is distinctive and highly enjoyable. More so on acoustic than electric, because these picks make a lot of click and if a particular electric guitar has a pickup close to string contact, I can hear the pick. But, minor issue. And some players might not care.

5 I just didn’t know…

…that I was playing with the pick equivalent of wax in my ears until I got this. Blown away. I have a Martin HD-28 and I put Thomastik strings on it. I thought I’d reached the pinnacle of tone—until this pick came into my life.

5 Great pick with nice tone
Posted by Chad on 30th Jul 2025
I especially like the difference on acoustic guitar... nice and loud without as much pick noise. Pick glides off of the strings and makes certain swept and string skipping phrases more accurate for me. Looking forward to trying some of the other sizes/thicknesses.

5 Found my go-to pick
Posted by Keith Dinsmore on 29th Jul 2025
Fifty years ago, I used tortoiseshell picks. While I loved them, they were pricey and sometimes difficult to find. Forty years ago, I switched to a graphite/carbon-infused pick and have used it ever since. After hearing about Blue Chip, I bought one, and BOOM! It's excellent and exactly what I've been looking for.

5 fantastic picks!

Love this Blue Chip. Nice and balanced, but brighter than my TD40 for when I want something a little lighter. Sounds like a 1mm celluloid, but doesn’t wear down like one!

5 Birthday present for my friend.
Posted by Matt on 25th Jul 2025
I was told how long I’d have to wait to have the pick engraved. The estimate was right on and it’s exactly what I ordere. My friend is going to love it!!
