BlueChip's $35 guitar picks made of aerospace-grade material are favored by stars like John Mayer, Billy Strings, and Steve Martin. For around the past hundred years, most guitar players have used plastic picks that run about $0.25. After this, bluegrass circles started using tortoiseshell picks; and now, the upper echelon of musicians have turned to even higher-end picks like BlueChip.
WSJ explores how an unintended invention upended the high-end pick industry and spread, despite initial skepticism.
