    If you use the exerciser to develop finger independence, I think it could be useful, but the more I play, the more I realize it's not about strength at all.

    Useful, yes, essential, no.

    They're mainly good for preventing hand fatigue IMO, and that's even iffy...

    As with marnold's experience, I found one to be good after a hand injury.
    Ah, nothing relieves the discomfort of GAS pains like the sound of the UPS truck rumbling down your street. It's like the musician's Beano.
