Hello! First, a little background. Eargo's 2nd headquarters is in Nashville and we've fit numerous musicians in the city. As the person responding, you should also know that I'm a semi-pro guitarist as well as an audiologist. There are few technical things I can mention. 1) The placement of Eargo at the entrance of your ear canal allows the outer ear to function normally to funnel sound into the microphone. This will give a more natural sound experience compared to a behind-the-ear (BTE) hearing aid. 2) The use of Flexi Fibers allows the ear canal to remain "open" allowing lower frequency sounds to enter the ear canal unblocked. 3) The Neo HiFi has an extended frequency response which is helpful for speech understanding and listening to music. 4) Our audiologists can do remote programming of the hearing aids if needed for fine-tuning. We've worked with so many musicians who have tried traditional BTE hearing aids who love the sound and discreet fit. The in-canal fitting also allow for use of large cup style ear phones, All that being said, any hearing aids' performance will be highly subjective to the person wearing it. A guitar tone that sounds great to me may not be to your liking. Make sense? That's you have a 60-day trial period when you purchase through Best Buy to really evaluate Eargo in your real life and work closely with our team. I hope this helps!
