Cleaning a tacky/sticky rubber

Equipment

Hey coach, we know that a rubber can be cleaned simply with a damp cloth (damped with plain water). 

Can the same be done for a tacky rubber like DHS G888?

Hi Nilabhra,

Yes the same can be done.  You may need a little more water on it than for a non sticky rubber.

Tone is in Your Fingers

There's is an old saying about guitar playing - tone is in your fingers. And If you've ever seen a really good guitarist play an old guitar then you'll understand how true that saying is. I know we go on a lot about this topic but it is so true. Once you've got yourself a decent bat, it's no longer up to the equipment, it's up to YOU!

Hi Coach, Do you think that by cleaning the rubber with water, some of the stickiness would be, well, "washed away"?

Not more than it would with normal wear and tear.
