Description
Just clamp the Fatfinger sustain enhancer on to the headstock of any guitar or other stringed instrument. It adds mass to the weak end of the instrument, so strings ring out longer, louder, and with more balance. Dead spots can be tuned out simply by changing the point of contact to the headstock. The results are instant and impressive.

Definite improvement!
I had a bit of dead spot on my Squier P bass at the 5th fret of the G string. I tend to use that note a lot in the songs I play and it was really kind of annoying with a thuddy sound when ever I hit it with not much sustain. This was an issue even after spending hours doing a really good set up with trus rod, string height, intonation etc. Raising the string didn't help any and at one time I thought that perhaps I may have a raised fret but not so, there was never any fret buzzing going on. Changing strings didn't help matters either and I was beginning to think I was just going to have to live with it. I decided to do a search on a popular bass forum to see if it was common issue and was shocked to find lots of people reporting it with their Fender basses. They said it was possibly some kind of a frequency vibration in the headstock absorbing and deadening the note. I have been playing bass for over 40 years and have never heard of such a thing. I then read about the Fender Fatfinger and some people seemed to feel it was worthless while others felt it had real value. Just like all things where people disagree I had to decide for myself so bought one. Some people are just not very hearing gifted so that could explain a good part of the varying opinions. After trying it out today I have to say there is definite improvement at that fret, the thuddiness is nearly gone. It's not perfect but any improvement is a good thing and how much do we spend on our amps, strings, pickups, tone pots, chords, bridges, tuning keys etc. just to get a small but noticable improvement in our sound? I feel the Fender fatfinger is a quality item, sensibly priced, does what it states and even looks cool on my headstock. The only question I have is why doesn't Fender who obviously is aware of the issue just fix the problem with a new design in the headstock rather than selling this item? Lastly, Amazon would sell more of these if it were properly labeled as for bass also. On the card inside the Fender box it does state it can be used for bass, but not on the Amazon site. I like it so much I'm planning on getting another one and experimenting with placement of double fatfingers on the Squier or putting one of them on my Ibanez bass .

Fat finger for g string dead spot
Works great on my SG style guitar with a slight resonant dead spot (G string 12th fret). Clamped it dead center on the top of the headstock and that note sustains normally now. It wasn't the worst dead spot but I can definitely tell a difference.

Good product, or gimmick? Let's see!
After careful consideration, and researching this product, I can honestly state that while using this "Fender Fatfinger," the high frequencies and tight tone is very apparent and I could definitely tell the difference after playing with the device clamped on, then off! It works best if it is clamped somewhere close to the guitar nut on the headstock. Not on the nut, but close to it. You will also notice a tighter lower frequency in the 4th, 5th, & 6th strings. The sustainability of the guitar is also better with this clamped on. You will have to listen to your guitar and possibly need to move the clamp around somewhat to get the best tone. All guitars have a sweet spot in their necks. So, search for yours! One last thing... after purchasing and using this product for a while, I went out to my guitar workshop and found some carbon steal flat rods that could be cut to the same exact dimensions as the Fender Fatfinger. So I made 6 of them, buffed them out to an almost chrome like shine, drilled the hole for the screw clamp, put a nice plastic knob on it, some felt padding, and bam, I had 6 of these clamps that looked and worked as good as the Fender product. You do have to buy one of the Fender products in order to obtain the exact dimensions. But hey, the duplicates work as good as the Fender product.

Seems to work!
I got two of these, one for myself (I mostly play bass) and one for my friend (who mostly plays guitar). Both of us noticed improvements. My tone on my Fender P-Bass became cleaner, so much so that I turned the tone knob all the way in the opposite direction to what would normally be the muffled side. It's now clean and warm, not muffled. My sustain is also improved by a very noticeable margin. My buddy put his FatFinger on his Fender Mustang, and remarked on how natural the FatFinger looks on his guitar. "It looks very 'Fender-y'". He also noticed similar tone and sustain improvements. I'll probably be buying more of these. But since I popped this puppy on my P-Bass, I haven't really been playing anything else.

Not Sure If It’s Worth It
I had one of these years ago before fender owned them and they were just “Fat Fingers” and I remember liking it so out of nostalgia I purchased one. I have a jazzmaster so anything that can help with the lack of sustain (without a $200 bridge) is welcome. It does something. I mean besides making your neck noticeably heavier. I’m just not sure if adding sustain is what it does. I’ll leave it at this. It does have a slight effect on your guitar’s tone. Whether you like it and don’t mind the extra weight on the neck is up to you. I’m keeping it on for now for no other reason than I bought it.

By Golly, it Really Works!
I have two Fender Player Series basses. One Precision and one Jazz. Both had "dead spots" on the G string. Apparently, this is a common problem. I read on TalkBass that some of my fellow bassists had some success with the Fender FatFinger and so I decided to give it a shot. As it turns out, these little clamps do help by adding mass to the headstock. Now, I do not claim to understand WHY this is, but (in my case anyway) it helped to solve the problems. I get more sustain playing notes on the G string. I was fortunate enough to be able to buy one used from the Amazon Warehouse and paid 50% of retail so I am extra happy about this purchase. I think they are definitely worth a shot if you are experiencing the same lack of sustain on your bass or guitar.

Did Nothing for Me
Well made, but I heard no noticeable difference in sound of either guitar or bass.

Fixed dead notes on my Fender P bass
My P Bass had dead sound on G string frets 5 and 6. This clamp did the trick, no more dead notes. Sustain improved as well. Highly recommend
