Default Is BlueChip no longer making the TP35?

I was hoping to buy a BlueChip TP35, but I can't seem to find one anywhere - a few shops have them listed, but are all sold out. Does anyone know if they aren't making them anymore?

Thanks,
Brian

I thought that was a custom run ordered by certain dealers? You could always contact bluechip who will make you one in whatever size you like.

Not sure but there does seem to be a shortage. It honestly could be a shortage with folks buying stuff up just in case. In my experience Carter’s vintage carries a ton of bluechips. They are out of the tp 35 but do appear to have one at least in the tp 35 1r.

I’d suggest calling if you’re eager to find out.

Happy picking.

Order from their website
If a 35 is not listed ..order a 40 and
Mention on the note you want a 35.
They will make you one!

Blue Chip doesn’t list TAD 45 picks, but has made them for me on request. Delivery was just as fast as any other pick I’ve ordered too. Just ask.

I've contacted Matt at Blue Chip a few times, and they've made me 3 picks in a 35 gauge...a TD, a TAD-3R and a TAD-1R...

Never a problem...

You had me worried for a minute, as the TD-35 is one of my standbys.

Thanks for all the info. I didn't really want to order from bluechip directly as they charge $16 for international shipping (instead of $2 to stick it into an envelope)

I guess I'll just order a few to make it worth my while.
