Magkakaroon kaya ng time na may brand endorsements narin ang scrunchies for guitarists?

Nope. Matagal na ang concept na yan, chief. Yung mga scrunchies or in layman's terms, hair-tie, and nagse-serve as string dampener to eliminate unwanted or excess noise, especially when executing 8-finger or multi-finger tapping. Mas malinis pakinggan.

Para sa mga ayaw gumastos or sa mga tao na 'di napra-practikalan sa ganito...

For the purpose of playing clean, it's ok.
Would be better to use fret wraps by gruv gear though.
