			<description><![CDATA[ I still have mine and after a year or so of everday picking...it&#39;s still in fine shape. It&#39;s the only pick I use anymore and I haven&#39;t lost it yet!
Although,I&#39;ve had plenty of scares! Love my BlueChip! ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ I would say go with the 1.25mm pick as well. I use the 1.0mm and that is fine with me, but the thicker pick may &quot;fatten&quot; up the tone slightly. Both
should have the same bevel on them.
<br>
<br>
I recently acquired a couple of Wegen 1.4mm acoustic guitar picks, and I like them alot. I find they work really well on my mandolin, and equally as well as my
BC does IMO.

			<description><![CDATA[ Bill, 1.25 mm is just about perfect for me, but I have picks that I like all the way up to 3.0 mm. The fatter ones are what I lean towards on mandolin, and if
I use 2.0 mm on guitar, I put a bevel on them. The RB pick that is on the way to you is about 2 mm. ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ What do you guys think would be good for someone who likes a 1.14mm Dunlup Ultex pick? I just switched over to those from 1.00mm Tortex and find the 1.14
stiffness may actually allow me to pick faster. I see Bluechip makes a 1.00mm and then the next step up is 1.25mm. I use light strings. ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Dave,
<br>
<br>
Unclench the Jack Benny grip on the coin purse. The Bluechip TD-40 is WAY cool! It feels and plays and sounds better (for my tastes) than my Red Bears. It
feels, plays and sounds as good as my TS, is easier to replace and less worriesome if I ever cross a border with it.
<br>
<br>
NICE pick!!!
<br>
<br>
Dave ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ I went to a jam session a couple of weeks ago and next morning I could&#39;nt find my pick box. It had my blue chip pick, john pearse fast turtle, about 8
custom pearse picks and my best dunlop finger picks. I searched everywhere and was going to order some new ones. I decided to wait a little longer and then the
host of the jam phoned me to say someone found them. Indeed i&#39;m very happy. I never thought I&#39;d lose them. I should insure them. Happy ending. ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ I&#39;ve definitely been thinking the same thing, Louie... but I&#39;ve been reluctant because I wasn&#39;t absolutely sure that was it... I mean, I&#39;m 99%
sure, but not 100%... so I didn&#39;t want to screw it up. But now, I&#39;ll have the left hand bevel that I think I need and that should prove it one way or
the other. I actually started trying to change my pick attack angle, but it&#39;s really hard to break that habit of the way I angle the pick when striking a
string, so I decided to buy what I think I need instead. ]]></description>

   Dave, once you get the new one in you can probably take an emory board to the one I sold you and modify it to match your new one............

really well, with a little fatter trebles.

as loud. But the feel of the pick really has me hooked..super stiff and slick...its awesome. It made a marked difference on my Weber Gallatin mando,which has a
&#39;Hog back and sides so I tried it on my 126..whoa..huge sound difference from any of the picks I own. I did notice the Red Bear and a purple Dunlop sounded
about the same on the Rosewood... ]]></description>
