The Ernie Ball Guitar Headstock String Dampener controls extra noise from guitar strings above the nut. You clip it right on the headstock, where the strings stretch from the tuners to the nut. This simple device is small and easy to fit on almost any guitar. It blocks sounds that can sneak into recordings and live shows, especially when you play with lots of tapping or fast picking. The dampener uses a soft material that touches the strings, so ringing and buzzing stop before they reach your amplifier or microphone. Studio players and anyone who wants a clean sound will notice the difference. You can leave it on during practice, recording, or even a gig—no need to take it off between songs.
