How To Make Ping Pong Guitar Nails (Classical Guitar)

[@gerardlacey9384]

Brilliant video thank you, I've been using ping pong nails for years too, whenever I break a real nail, I think they sound much better than false nails and much cheaper. Because of the dust I usually do it outside. Your guitar sounds lovely. Best wishes and thank you again. Gérard lacey in Ireland.

Hey Manus, can I ask, can this be done for a thumbnail, too? And how often would you change these? I'm an avid gym goer and work outdoors too so I find the whites of my nails rarely live long enough to be used on Classical. SO this is a Godsend, thank you!

Wow! Thanks for the information GOAT 🎉

found gluing half the ping pong ball after cutting out the shape allows you to easily customize where pressure is applied while gluing without needing tweezers. Also, filing more than cutting ensures not loosening the super glue bond. Thanks, awesome!

Absolutely, have to be very careful to let the glue fully dry before cutting. Filing would be safest, but it takes bloody ages haha!

What kind of glue ......? Nail super glue or just super glue? Thanks

Marvellous !

What do you do if the nail is really short? Or in my case, I jammed my nail into a door and ended up damaged and now only a nail half way long if that makes sense. Can you glue on a false nail, then the ping pong ball nail glued under that as you would do to a normal nail? Reason is that false nails break - I do it myself and don't use gel over the top of false nail as they do in nail salons.
