How do I get my guitarist to turn down at practice? Alternately, what are some really high NRR earplugs under $100?

walk up to guitarist and say "Oi mate crank it down a little bit you fanny"
>>68983560
have him face the amp at head level pointed directly at him. he'll turn down

Etymotic plugs are good, it's what I've been using for the past 10 or so years
Picked up another set a few months ago and they were around 50 usd

I've asked him to turn down and he refuses, or he'll just move the knob a tiny bit. I haven't really pushed the issue tho since the earplugs I was using then didn't attenuate the sound very much anyway. But last practice I brought better plugs and my ears were still ringing afterwards.

Be more aggressive. Just imagine you're Donald Trump, he wouldn't back down.

Shitty situation.
If your guitarist is the writer its hard to give suggestions without their ego coming into play.
Does he wear ear plugs? Did you notify him that he is going to lose his hearing?
Its all fun until you can't fucking play anymore.
