Here is what the finger protectors look like when I put them on. Yes it is not really pretty and it is best that you trim the fingernails on the left hand – or the right hand, whichever you play the guitar with so that when you put the finger protectors on, you won’t tear them, they are a soft rubber so yes they will tear if you are too forceful. I chose the grey color, but you can get any color you like. The link to Amazon to get these is under all the pictures so it is easy for you to pick these up.
I really recommend this tool to help with your instrument playing, acousitc guitar or mandolin. It will make playing these instruments more fun and not painful.
If you want lessons, on Mandolin or Guitar I am a teacher and I can teach you through Skype. QQ or Zoom. PM and we will find a time for your lessons!
Great idea and great thing to teach musical instruments
The protection devices on the hands is better than to have blisters on them.
