BeginnerGuitarHQ – Best Earplugs For Musicians (November 2019)
Do some research online – just like headphones for your phone, some people might need to try a few different types before you settle on the one that works best for you. But don’t go without!
A quick poll of our FromThePit photographers revealed a range of different options:
- orange foam plus from a chemist! (keep some of these cheapies in your bag for when you forget your main plugs, or to give to a friend in need!)
- Silicone earplugs from Kathmandu
- Alpine
- etymotics
- ultimate ears
- Isolate (people who have used these rave about them!)
- Custom fitted from Bay Audiology
- Custom fitted from www.acoustixhearing.co.nz
Shops which sell musical equipment usually sell musician’s earplug too so try The Rockshop, KBB music and places like RealGroovy.
