The Ernie Ball FretWrap is a professional string dampener/muting accessory that every studio, session player, and tapping aficionado should have! Slide on the FretWrap to effectively cut overtones and sympathetic resonance during recording, live performance, two-hand tapping, or any creative situation where you need that extra muting hand for cleaner takes without the unwanted string noise or ringing. The adjustable strap lets you fine-tune the pressure and dampening of the strings. You can quickly slide the dampener over the headstock when not in use. No special guitar modification, installation, or tools required - Yet amazingly effective! Large fits 6-string basses & 8-string electric guitars.

Facile da applicare e da spostare sulle corde quando serve.Io lo lascio sulla paletta della chitarra in modo che non sia troppo stretto, non serve stringerlo, cosi' quando devo stoppare le corde a vuoto, semplicemente lo abbasso sul primo capotasto ed e' sufficiente.Molto utile e funzionale!

I needed to stop string rattle at the nut especially during my recording sessions. I picked the Erie Ball Fretwrap because their products are always made and finsished properly. It's easy to install and also easy to remove. It did what I needed it to do. Definitely recommend this particular Ernie Ball fretwrap.

Great fretwrap, it's worth the price difference between this and cheaper quality ones. My cheaper fretwraps just sit on acoustic/hollowbody guitars that I don't want to resonate in the studio, as they don't work as well for sliding past the nut in live situations.

I thought these things were a gimmick. They really take that ringing out of the strings past the nut and can also mute strings so they don't ring out accidently. Great buy and nice quality. Expected nothing less from Ernie Ball.

Received the item quickly and it is as advertised. Fits the neck of my bass well and does mute the strings. I like the idea of what this does for certain situations when playing especially when first beginning. However, I have played for several years before this and learned how to mute the strings myself. Wanted to see how this item performed compared to normal muting and what situations I can use it in when playing. Can say for beginners it can be helpful but shouldn't be a replacement for learning to mute by hand.

I got these for a 7 string and a 6 string with larger strings. I haven't played guitar for years so I tend to hit extra strings. It has helped with sloppy playing and unwanted noise. It's not the cheapest solution. You could just get a hair tie but I wanted something that is well made and adjustable. Its a bit bulky but looks fine on a black guitar. It's functional and easy to move in front of or behind the nut.

O produto ajuda no abafamento das cordas eliminando sons indesejados e com a qualidade da Ernie Ball ainda por cima. Vale a pena!

If you have the problem with unwanted string noise this may be just for you. Im fits perfectly by the nut to muffle the noise form the loose strings. Great for recording in the studio. 8/10 recommend product for any guitar player.

I noticed a lot of bassists with these little bands on their bass necks and inquired on the purpose. I was told they were supposed to help dampen open strings and control overtones on open notes. I decided to try it.First, let me say that this Ernie Ball branded fret wrap is very nice. It is well made and fit perfectly around the neck of my Fender Precision at the nut. The materials are soft and sturdy, and it looks nice and unobtrusive. I am quite pleased with the quality of the product.However, it doesn't seem to serve any function that makes any positive difference to my sound or tone. I have placed it in various positions and experimented with tension to no great result. The best has been that it does nothing and the worst has been that it inhibits playing in one way or another. It may be that thirty years of playing without this thing has developed my technique such that I don't need this tool. If that is the case, then I don't understand why anyone needs it.So, while I can't recommend having a fret wrap, I can highly recommend this Ernie Ball version to anyone who is determined to get one.
