Stephen Switzer replied to Daniel J Thomack's discussion picks"I have settled on the BlueChip CT55. The BlueChip picks play very smooth and fast, with little pick noise. By the way, I use their thumb picks as well- best I've ever used."

It was great to see you at Merlefest! Sorry we didn't get to hang out longer. I hope all is going well for you in New York.

I saw you for a split second at Merlefest when they pulled your number for the contest. 5 minutes later I got an emergency call and had to go back to Florida. I trust all is well,
