Big pink ear muffins! And when I can't find them, plugs.

I protect my ears by playing at a volume that is not painful and for moderate lengths of time.

Re: how do you protect your ears?

I have never used hearing protection while playing out or at practice, an admission I am not proud of. I am sure I will pay the price in about ten years. I had a set when I was a kid just starting out but they cut the sound so far down I just threw them out. I understand that the new models are much better. To all the young players, if you are in this for the long haul, quality hearing protection is probably worth looking into.

Earplugs. I get them for free from my flightline buddies! [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/headbang.gif[/img]
If I don't protect my sensitive ears they ring for a day!

I used to have a nice set of Hearos earplugs-the barbed kind. James from Eighteen Visions recommended them to me. But I left them at work one day under the counter and someone stole them. I have to get a new set now.

When I practice alone, I keep the volume pretty low. But when it's the band, I wear earplugs.

I don't and never have, but I am going to start soon.

As a one man band loud volumes are rarely a problem for me. I still go jam with a band every now and then, for fun. For that, and concerts, I always take ear plugs, and I almost always use them.

I take the index figure on each hand and insert it into the corresponding ear.
