Do FretWraps make a difference?
A string dampener can be a helpful tool in cleaning up your tone. Even if you only use it to suppress sympathetic resonance past the nut, your recordings and your live tone will sound better. While it's important to develop good muting techniques, a string dampener can be used to assist with muting.
What's the point of FretWraps?
FretWraps are adjustable straps that wrap easily around the neck of your guitar to dampen or mute the strings. FretWraps can also be used for live recording when you want to keep unwanted string noise or ringing at bay.
