I’ve become a Finger Ease junky

[dstroud]

I’ve always had an issue that sometimes my strings just feel weird due to the environment and I might come up a fret short on a slide. About 2 years ago I started occasionally using Finger Ease when I felt that. It’s not my favorite thing to do but it does remedy the issue and has prevented some clams on gigs. Anybody use anything similar or have alternate solutions? TIA!

Anal-ease.

Anal-ease.

After I use up my next two crates of anal-ease, I’ll only have three skids of anal-ease left in storage. I’m getting really worried about my low supplies!

Gary can make all the jokes he wants, finger ease is fucking fantastic when you've got a marathon gig.

Especially when it's hot outside and you're sweating a bit

Great stuff! Been using Finger Ease since the early 70's.
Sometimes the hand kinda sticks to the neck and this is like wiping your strings with a Salami.

I just keep my strings clean and wipe them with string fuel after I finish playing and wiping with cloth.

Fast Fret for me.

I usually get pop eyes before the gig but let me say a little of that on the fingers goes a long way.

I tried it on my salami. It almost caught on fire.

Same can be said for silicone based anal lube

The brown sound

 

[braintheory]

I might have to give this a try. For classical guitar I sometimes use Vaseline on the strings for just the right hand part. It makes it easier to play fast and more forgiving on getting a good sound if you’re nails aren’t totally on point in their shape

When you get old enough, you produce your own

I've been using it since I was a kid; shit rules

I do think those products help your strings last longer in a humid environment or if you tend to have sweaty hands.
