| Guitar Playing Gloves
Turns out nearly all guitar strings contain nickel, which I'm allergic to. Explains a lot of these rashes haha.
So I've turned to the internet in search of some gloves to play with, which apparently are very hard to come by. There are some specialized gloves specifically for playing guitar but these just look ridiculous (http://www.originalguitarfingers.com/) . So I've figured the thinnest of textiles might give me just enough tactile response to press the strings. Eventually I bought myself some silk liner gloves. These do a pretty good job but make an irky sound when rubbed against strings. | | 1 |  | Nemean Lion

It moves too fast yes. In the realization of death, we face the greatest difficulties maintaining a moral life. Many of us fail without the stronghold of religion and turn to egocentric hedonism: promiscuity, materialism and other pleasures to numb the human brain. | | 4 |  | As Cities Burn

03.17.15 | I bought these: http://www.amazon.de/Jasmine-Handschuhe-Innenhandschuh-Unterziehhandschuh-Medium/dp/B001RCKSB6/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1426605565&sr=8-6&keywords=jasmine+silk
It's kind of curious that this market is so... almost nonexistent. Especially in the light of the prevalence of nickelallergy. | bakkermaarten007

Ah yes, it was your review. I'm playing it a lot these last couple of days, genuinely emotional post-rock. | DungeonBoy

I just bought these at my local store and put them on my G&L. They feel just as good as any other brand, sound great, and are 100% nickel-free | SCREAM!
03.17.15 | Checked your link and tbh they don't look that bad and I mean functionality>looks any day. How often do you play in public anyway? | bakkermaarten007

03.17.15 | don't worry man I'm the same haha
on the plus side though, it makes the whole aesthetic aspect kind of irrelevant so just get what seems like it'll work best | bakkermaarten007

The ones I've ordered work pretty good I must say. Now only time will tell how durable they are. | Archelirion
03.17.15 | 'Makes me fall asleep.Which is a good thing. Played it over thirty times, hardly know what it sounds like.' - that must be quite an odd experience, to know you've listened to it that much but have likely never heard the end. | ZombicidalMan
03.18.15 | seriously though http://www.amazon.de/Rotosound-BS10-British-Steels-10-46/dp/B004E9YOLE/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1426656979&sr=8-5&keywords=rotosound+steels
use nickel-free strings instead of compromising your playing by using gloves. |
