I recently started noticing that the nail on my right hand’s ring finger had been tapping the tops of my flat top acoustics when I play, causing a clicking sound. I don’t know how long it’s been happening but once I noticed it, it had to go. I tried trimming the nail back as far as I could without bleeding but that didn’t do it and trying to change how I held my hand didn’t work either. So I got some rubber thimbles to see if that would do the trick and they’ve been successful in silencing the clicking sounds but the jury is still out on how comfortable they are. Time will tell.
