Ben Edwards (former lead guitarist for the popular down-under band "DegreesK", author of Jamorama - The Ultimate Guitar Learning Kit) about using FingerWeights in guitar practice
"You can feel the improvement almost instantly when you remove the weights, it really does feel like a weight has been removed (no pun intended). I have been using these daily for the last three weeks and I can honestly say that they are living up to the manufacturer’s claims!
From being skeptical at first to where I am at now, I strongly recommend that if you are looking for ways to increase your finger strength and speed these are a great investment to make. Sure they aren’t cheap, but they will last a lifetime and they really are making a difference with my playing. One thing my wife pointed out also is that they would be great for pianists too! Great one! I never thought of that."
Nancy Falkenstein, OTR, CHT, CEES about using FingerWeights for hand therapy
"When treating patients & you want to increase the challenge, have the ability to grade progress objectively, and see the benefits you should try finger weights. FingerWeights LLC has a unique device to incorporate into your clinical practice. I have been using finger weights for years. I like the ability to adjust the weight and record the progress. I use finger weights with many pathologies from tendonitis, to fracture rehabilitation to general weakness. Finger weights are great tools to increase demand on the targeted structures without increasing pain. I have found them beneficial with musicians, athletes, office workers and retired patients. Give them a try."

Andy Tanas, formerly with Black Oak Arkansas and also Krokus: "I used two weight increments and practiced for about forty-five minutes a day for four days before my next show. Let me say, without a doubt, it works. Two hours with no break goes by much easier. I haven’t felt tired or beat up at the end of the night since I’ve been using them. Not only do they work…they make sense!"
