So there was a punk show at my house a few weeks ago as always. i was a bit drunk and i go to take a leak in the downstairs bathroom near the stage, i think the show is mostly over. I notice a ring sitting on the toilet. I pick it up and look its got a bunch of rough diagonal grooves all the way around. I pick it up and then a bit later realize it works great to slap the guitar strings as i play. then i realized if i position it correctly i get this cool scratching noise everytime i strike with the pick as the ring rubs the string above the one i pick. OMG. Also I can use the ring to strum then go immediatly to fingerstly. Fucking sweet.
the file is a new song i was writing, you can hear the scratching as i strum and after the lyrics finish i drop the pick and all im using is the ring.

It looks like this kinda, but the grooves are as rough as the side of a quarter and its made of aluminum or something. They follow the same pattern but the grooves are very close together.

Cool man so the ring scratches the strings and makes a slight washboard effect. I like.

I think this may have motivated me to learn to slap and pop on my bass. You've got to love that groove when someone can pull it off.
