Guitar Glove BASS Glove - 5 Gloves - Finger & Hand Issues

These are a real hand-saver if you have the same problem I do with fingers cracking open! I turned around and order five more after the first day. Perfect for practice. I actually found that for my fretted bass I prefer playing WITH the glove on the fretting hand. Slides and ornaments are much easier and faster. On the picking hand the nylon is too slippery to hang onto a pick, but then you don't really need the glove if you are using a pick. For finger picking they work fine (only a little muffled), but I rip holes in the fingertips after a few hours. Better the glove than my skin, I suppose. I should mention they also work very well on fretless bass, both hands. I use flats on the fretless, so I haven't torn up the picking hand yet.

This glove does exactly what it claims to do -- enhance practice time, especially for those with callus issues or who practice several hours a day. I read somewhere that they claim each glove lasts at least 30 hours, but I've got over 90 on my first -- washing it occasionally extends its useful live. It's very comfortable as long as you get the right size. I didn't initially (bought a small instead of a medium), but the company arranged an exchange immediately. Very cordial people, very well run organization. I love this product and can't recommend it highly enough.

I saw someone wearing on video. They are thin, nice feel, I only wear no 1 hand. Slide up and down fretboard nicely. How long they last remains to be seen. Since I “lost” callous on fingertips by not practicing, they help. I like them, some may not. I have not used on hand plucking or popping strings. I would defer my preference to a professional(if used by one

I saw these being demonstrated on an online bass guitar instructional video and thought they would help overcome friction between my fingers and the plastic strings on my new ukulele. They decreases the feeling a little, but it's worth it to decrease "sticky string" effect. They make plucking easier and protect my fingers at the same time.

Because of my palmoplantar psoriasis these gloves have become indispensable to me (on my fretting hand) to continue performing. While my playing is somewhat compromised and they don't allow me to finger-pick, it's pretty hard to imagine a glove that performs more as a second skin and interfere's less with my fretting. I DO suggest erring on the small side. Although I have largish hands, I buy medium gloves which have to be pulled on pretty tightly the first time, but are, as a result, much more form-fitting

Works Great for the fretting hand, it actually makes for faster transitions up and down the neck. Being older and after playing for forty years it also makes for some nice cushioning for the fingertips. I mainly play fretless, on a fretted bass you do get some pilings on the glove but it does not tear. On the plucking hand the glove did develope holes at the fingertips after a few weeks, but I don't need it for that hand. Fretting hand glove holding up very well. Will buy again.

I bought these a long time ago and these gloves are really simple, but they have saved my hands while playing the acoustic. For those of you who have not built up callouses, do yourself a favor and get these gloves. They make a huge difference, and your fingers will thank you for it.

I like these gloves, but why when I order black gloves you put a baby blue cuff on it? Why can't black gloves just be black. One doesn't always need "a hint of color".

In two minds about these. They pretty much are as you see them and expect them to be. Unsure about the quality as the seam is split slightly between the thumb and first finger (as received). Small point but the pics don't show the possibly undesirable pink band around the wrist part (see pics I've uploaded). No doubt they do they job but expensive for what they are. Should've got my mum to knit me a pair!

Despite descriptions, this does not work very well. I bought a smaller size as recommended but it is still too cumbersome to play chords accurately and catches on other strings deadening the sound. A nitrile glove works better for guitar. I imagine that it would work for bass.

I have a hereditary neuropathy which I inherited from my mother. With these gloves I have been able to continue playing bass guitar at the age of 69 with much less discomfort than before I discovered them. A little expensive but excellent product. Many thanks.

In case of sensory damage to hands i.e. after stroke or injury, these can be a lifesaver. Discomfort minimised with surprisingly little detrimental effect on touch and dexterity. For bass players (with plenty of room between strings) a doddle, but tricksy guitar chords and lines still very manageable. NB not shipped in pairs, but as ambidextrous singles. Washable, durable.

Nice fit and very handy.
