Gruvgear Fretwraps SM 3 Pack

To be brutally honest, I wanted these things at first because I thought they looked cool. For recording purposes you could always use a sock or a scrunchie, right? However, after I started using the fretwraps I started to notice a difference while playing. I rarely use them to dampen the strings when playing tapping or things like that (because I rarely do it). 98% of the time it sits above the nut - and that is where I need it.
When I don't have a fret wrap on and play riffs where a lot of muting is required, I can ALWAYS here the bit of strings between the tuners and the nut ringing now due to sympathetic resonance, which I didn't even notice before. The fretwraps clamp down on this phenomenon
So be warned, after you use these things, you'll proably end up needing them afterwards.
The over all quality of the fret wraps is OK, I notice bits of string (from the fretwraps) coming off now and then, when pushing it over the nut. Considering the price though, I think that kind of wear is acceptable. I've never worn one of these things out and I have the feeling they'll keep for quite a while.

i used to use other methods in muting the strings while playing or recording but they were Inefficient and unreliable.
With the Fretwraps, i get to enjoy playing or recording clear sessions.
If you have a friend that has one, don't hesitate to ask to try it for a few days so you can see the difference yourself and then you can decide whether you like it or not.

Note about the size option:
I have ordered the SM size but i can see that its not perfectly suitable for my 6 string Ibanez RG prestige , since the Neck is a little bit wider than normal 6 string guitars, so maybe the MD size is more suitable in that case.
