For the first time a glove

This is something never done before, there is no glove for fingerstyle playing, I invented it  because I needed it

I have a patent for this glove


The glove is going to be on sale as I am dealing with a glove manufacturer that is going to make it so that I will be able to sell it on line.

Arpegio Glove for guitar and bass

This glove I invented is stil a prototype, this is what I came up with, this is what I can do and yes it can be improved.
I am a musician, not a glove maker and eventually a music instrument company will make, produce it and distribute it in music stores world wide.

As guitarists need nails in order to play fingerstyle to a certain level of expression, often times the nails break while playing, in particular if playing a steel string guitar.
So most guitar players solve the problem by cutting nail shaped plastic and glueing it on their natural nails or gel acrylics put on at a nail salon and other methods involving the use of chemicals.
Besides the time, effort and continuous maintenance, another problem is that all super glues used and other chemicals are not health friendly for the nail, skin and when we breathe the fume they emanate while working with it fixing the nail,
besides the moisture and dirt that accumulates between the nails (fake and real) when the glued plastic begins to lose its stickiness can cause infections and nail fungus and that’s what I got as I used to glue plastic on my nails.

My nails got very sick. It was late August 2017 and I went to a skin doctor who prescribed me some medicinal cream and strongly advised me to stop gluing plastic on my nails.
When I went to the pharmacy to get the product prescribed, the pharmacist also gave me a glove to protect the cream on my fingertips.
I went home, I put the cream, wore the glove and I thought that I wouldn’t be able to play fingerstyle guitar anymore as I used to and that was too bad for me! Then I took the guitar and started playing while wearing that glove and although the sound was muffled and was nothing compared to when I had artificial nails, that glove had me thinking and that’s when I got inspired!

So motivated by my desperate will of getting back to my fingerstyle playing as I used to do, after hundreds of prototypes I finally made one that fits all styles of music also to a virtuoso level! Having nails problems is common among fingerstyle guitarists, for those who use fake nails some won't have big issues, some guitarists will occasionally notice a nail or two turning green or black and a very few will go through what I experienced, but it all depends on how intensely you are playing fingerstyle and how much you're depending on having plastic glued on your nails and I was very dependent on it, I was over using the plastic glueing but I had no choice playing fingerstyle at a virtuoso level, yes! Very fast! Including 380BPM jazz be bop single notes fingerpicking and rasgueados.
Last but not least my invention is a technique booster for both the guitarist and the bassist! Thanks to the double folded nail attached to the top and bottom of the fingertip, and the bottom part  following the fingertip's shape,  it will never get stuck to a string, also with a much smoother plucking it will greatly enhance the technique.
Play all styles of music with any guitar, even at a virtuoso level without the problem of breaking nails and getting them stuck to a string.

Here you have it : 1) Never get a nail stuck on a string- 2) No fear of breaking nails - 3) No hassles with use of glues and other chemicals to put fake nails .
