  • It's f^(ging great!! But i DID get mine for $5.95
I bought this for an ovation electric/acoustic, to use effects and hear it only through the amp, plug the acoustic and turn it into an electric...ish, have fun. It has a nice tight fit. pops out easily enough, sturdy, heavy rubber. D'Addario have never let me down. I'm not a fanboy, but this was under $6 and I also have a Martin and I'm interested to see if I can put it into "practice mode" past midnight. I literally just used it for the first time for 5 minutes, on a blues DeVille of all things (it was "right there"). I know it's to cut feedback, but for my intentions, it works well. and yeah, no feedback, but ovations use a piezo, so no magnetic field. I'm thinking of leaving it in the ovation and getting another for the martin. for less than $6, this is competing with all the other knock offs, and has a name I've come to personally trust, and yeah: lots of guitar accessories are tony plastic pieces of whatever, but there's a way to do it right, and I've never bought a new tool after buying one built by D'Addario. Then again, i've never tried another version, and I cannot stress this enough: I bought mine for less than $6. Ok, I've convinced myself to buy another for the Martin. My dudes, they had D' clip tuners for like $6 once and I bought one for each case. The batteries are probably dead now because i use a poly3. but it's under $6!!! ... show more

  • Works great as long as it fits
I’ve been a professional musician for 30+ yrs, and I’ve used this brand many times over the years. It works perfectly and does what it’s suppposed to do. Just make sure it fits! This will depend on your guitar. The actual dimension of this plug is 4.040”, so, roughly 4 and 1/32”. My Martin’s sound-hole is 3.990”, and this particular plug will not fit, it’s too tight. I could probably force it in, but I’m not doing that. No worries, I have other guitars that it’ll fit. But for this particular Martin, I found (on Amazon) a sound hole cover that is 10cm which equals 3.937”, and it’s a perfect fit. No forcing. So my advice is to try this 4” plug first, it’ll probably fit. But if it seems too tight, don’t force it. Search on Amazon for the 10cm plug and you’ll be happy. ... show more

  • Works. Dulls the sound a little as expected.
This fixed feedback issues with my Taylor 314ce. It was a little tight but not difficult to install. Stays in place. But it absolutely does change the sound of the guitar and make it a bit more dull. It's just the nature of things, all brands/models of feedback eliminators do that.

  • Tight fit in Fender Sonoran.
I'm being very generous with this review. I own a fender sonoran SCE acoustic electric in seafoam green. However, if you know this guitar. The fret board actually hangs over the soundhole just a tiny bit. Making it an excessively tight fit. To the point it almost worries me. With that being said. I put it in my other fender acoustic and it fit fine. But It doesnt serve my purpose because the one it fits is far from what i prefer to use for recording. I could probably snip it and trim it. But it just sounds like a pain to make it look good. So. The verdict. And my honest opinion. This is a solid little sound hole plug. Rubber type material. USA made and by a good brand. I will keep it. Throw it in the bin. Who knows when youll need something like this. If you have a full circular soundhole. Its definately worth a try. ... show more

  • Didn’t fit
Seems like a good idea but I measured and ordered. It was just a little too big. The material is soft-ish but too firm to squish into the sound hole. Also the thickness is a tight squeeze to fit under the strings. Seems like a good product but sadly didn’t fit.

  • Feedback Resistant
Very durable and solid hunk of rubber. Fits perfect in my Taylor 214. Makes a big difference for fighting against feedback and can also be used to quiet the guitar in a small room

  • Works great but a tight fit for Guild OM-240CE
It was tough to get it in place on my Guild OM-240CE but once I did, it worked as it should.

  • Solid fit
My Alvarez MD-60C has a fractionally smaller soundhole. Couldn’t get the Feedback buster to fit, so I bought a Screeching Halt. Its rounded, tapered countours allowed for a solid (read snug) fit…well done, Daddario. Also play your phosphor bronze light strings!
