Here is a picture of me playing the mandolin using the finger protectors. It really makes a big difference here too! If you play the mandolin just with your fingers, they really hurt. So with these I didn’t have any pain at all! I also suggest that you practice a half hour a day to get the feel of the finger protectors so that you can move from chord to chord, or note to note fast and accurately.
Great shot of these things. I don’t play an instrument but think its great
Yes I agree, it is a beautiful instrument but really hurts the left hand. I will have to practice with the finger protectors but I think it will be worth it in the end. When I am much better on the mandolin, I will post a video!
It is always useful to wear protective gear when playing the mandolin.
