Seem like a lot of us have this problem from all the years. Between guitars and Firearms! Now days I keep the sound down some and where ear protection.

I eventually started wearing earplugs (which as schnepf13 said also help you to hear the subtlties through all the row). But I didn't start till the damage should already have been done.

However, I recently had a very thorough hearing test and my ears were rated in top condition for someone of my age (mid 40s). Strange - but good!

Still can't hear the tonal difference between one, two and three piece Strat bodies, though... :wink:

Cheers - C

Seems way too common a complaint :(

I am the same between print rooms, military and music the hearing is shot.
Tinnitus whistles non stop, and I get to say "what" a lot.

Use ear plugs now, but that is a bit too late the damage already done.

Though sometimes not so bad a thing when the wife wants something done :wink:
