Cleaner Playing. Less Unwanted String Noise.
FretWraps are a simple way to clean up your sound when extra string noise starts getting in the way. Whether you're recording in the studio, tapping, playing with high gain, or just trying to tighten up your technique, they help reduce the unwanted overtones and sympathetic ringing that can sneak into your playing.
Slide one over the strings, adjust the pressure, and play. When you want your strings fully open again, just move it behind the nut. No tools, no mods, no hassle.
If You’ve Ever Fought Unwanted String Noise...
You know how frustrating it can be. One small open-string ring can make a clean take sound messy, especially in the studio or during fast technical passages. FretWraps help keep those extra vibrations under control so the notes you actually want to hear come through more clearly.
Why Players Love FretWraps
- Helps reduce unwanted overtones, ringing, and sympathetic string noise
- Great for recording, tapping, high-gain playing, practice, and live performance
- Adjustable pressure lets you choose how much dampening you want
- Slides behind the nut when you want full open-string resonance
- No tools, adhesives, or permanent instrument modifications needed
- Available in multiple sizes for guitars, basses, extended-range instruments, and more
Who FretWraps Are For
- Studio players who want cleaner takes
- Guitarists and bassists using tapping techniques
- Players working with high-gain tones
- Extended-range guitar and bass players
- Live performers who want more control on stage
- Anyone who wants their playing to sound tighter and more focused
How FretWraps Work
FretWraps sit gently across your strings to help control extra vibration. You can place one near the nut to clean up open-string noise, or move it further up the neck for stronger muting during specific techniques or recording situations.
Think of it less like an effect and more like a control tool. It doesn’t replace good technique, but it can help your instrument behave a little better when things need to sound clean, tight, and controlled.
User Testimonials
I play a lot of fast paced metal at 180-260 bpm, I try to not use a noise gate because it kills sustain, but These fret wraps literally ARE a noise gate. ~Adam B.
I don't know why I avoided getting FretWraps for the longest time. They are effective in guarding against strings ringing from behind the nut, a problem I had with a couple of my guitars. Problem solved and I cannot be happier. ~Michael D.
These things are exactly what I needed. Got tired of using rubber bands and hair ties to kill my string ring on my headstock. ~Ethan M.

Choosing the Right Size
| Size | Best Fit | Typical Instruments |
|---|---|---|
| SM | Standard-width necks | Most 6-string guitars and 4-string basses |
| MD | Wider necks | 5-string basses, classical guitars, and some extended-range guitars |
| LG | Extended-range instruments | 6-string basses and many 7- to 8-string guitars |
| XL | Extra-wide necks | 9-string guitars, 7-string basses, and other extra-wide instruments |
If you're between sizes, choose the size that gives you a snug but comfortable fit around the neck. You want enough contact to control the strings without making it difficult to slide or adjust.
FAQ
FretWraps help reduce the extra string noise that can creep into your playing, especially when recording, tapping, or playing with high gain. The result is a cleaner, more controlled sound without changing the notes you're actually trying to play.

I play a lot of fast paced metal at 180-260 bpm, I try to not use a noise gate because it kills sustain, but These fret wraps literally ARE a noise gate. They work very well. I used to tie hairbands/bandanas around my guitar to get the effect, but the wraps by gruv gear work better.
