Wow, you hit the nail on the head.  The speed and "tone for days" is truly remarkable. I'm an old dog but I may have just learned a new trick. There is better living trough Blue Chip Picks. I curse the day I misplace this gem.

It's exceedingly difficult to find a pick that delivers on all fronts, namely feel, tone, and durability. Indeed, before BlueChip, I'd never enjoyed more than two of those three important qualities in the same pick.

I just wanted to drop you a note and say a huge THANK YOU!! Your picks are simply amazing. They not only allow me to draw the tone I want to hear from my mandolin, they are extremely durable and fast. They seem to just glide across the string. There is no drag or rasp that a lot of other picks give you.

As a luthier, I'm always searching for ways to get the most out of my instruments. Usually it's a new technique I'll use during construction or finishing. This time, it's the Blue Chip pick!

I've been using the same pick for many, many years now. I tried tortoise shell at one time and it didn't work for me. I have now found a pick that's more what I'm used to as far as tone, fell, size and the no wear is great. I'm using the TD40 and I recommend it highly.

Cody Kilby

Being a guitar player, I find myself constantly looking for the perfect tone and a pick that doesn't wear. After playing a Blue Chip, those days are over.  These picks have a tone unlike any other. 
They are so pure and full of life.  The Pick sounds so good it brings stuff out in your music that inspires you to play. With all of the different shapes and sizes, it is amazing to capture so many different sounds. Blue Chip Picks are the best out there.
