Critical topic here for other CT-geeks out there. Have you noticed Chris Thile seems to have kind of switched back to Wegen picks instead of "his" BlueChip CT55?
I saw the Punch Brothers live in Geneva this summer, and this white pick in his right hand quickly caught my attention... Same thing on the videos of his latest appearance on A Prairie Home Companion a few days ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=byuBNNvHeT0 -- Bach's Allegro.
[side note: I'm not a big fan of the sound in this particular clip, but I guess it has more to do with the recording setup, since I felt the same way on earlier APHC performances like that one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gHMjGQ3iNAM -- Bach's E Major Prelude].
Do you have any idea, or heard anything, as to why he broke up with the BlueChip?
