Fingrs

Attention fellow guitar nerds:

I broke a nail recently. And fingernails, as fingerstyle guitarists know, are essential to a good sound. I have tried many different solutions, over the years, from pingpong balls, cut up and used as a nail, to epoxy nails. Recently after a concert in Colorado a fellow guitarist suggested "Fingrs Nails". "Fingrs" are basically fake nails you can find in the "womens beauty" section at the local supermarket. I have tried this route before (fake "press on" style fingernails that is...) but they usually sounded pretty crappy. Well, I've got to say "Fingrs" sound great, and they are much easier to apply than cut up ping pong balls.

PS.. Check out the "Fingrs" brush on nail glue, It also makes life much easier:)
