Welcome back to Gear Talk. Today we’re diving into the $35 guitar pick that’s got everyone from John Mayer to Steve Martin raving. For about a century, guitarists have strummed along with quarter-cent plastic picks, then bluegrass players rediscovered tortoiseshell. But now there’s BlueChip, crafting “aerospace-grade material” picks that promise warmth, attack, and durability in one slim wedge.

What’s the difference? These picks resist wear and tear, thanks to a proprietary blend originally designed for jet engine parts. Players say they get a consistent tone and feel, pick after pick. John Mayer calls them “a total game-changer,” while bluegrass champion Billy Strings loves the way they make his strings sing. Even comedian-mandolinist Steve Martin swears by them.

At $35 a piece, they’re a leap from the old plastic standard. But for pros chasing that perfect tone and rock-solid reliability, it may be worth every penny. That’s why this pick costs thirty-five bucks.
