Default Guitar Vs. Hamster

My babies are currently in the room my husband plays his guitars in. During the summer, they’re in another room that’s air conditioned. So...for 8 months of the year, my two Syrians and two Chinese are exposed to a half hour of electric guitar practice twice a week. Should I be concerned about the possible stress this causes or damage to their ears? It’s not quite like a rock concert, just medium volume guitar playing and a few high pitched notes sprinkled in.

Hamster can hear higher frequency sounds than humans can so I wouldn't be worried about direct hearing problems but if you do see any odd behaviour start to form I would try to move them into another room where the noise isn't so much

Hamster soon get used to normal household noises but personally I think a guitar practise is too much for them, I doubt it would damage their hearing unless it's very loud but I don't think it would be very pleasant for them at all!

One of our hamsters lives in the room where my husband plays his guitars but we felt it was too loud (when using the amp) for the hamster (me as well to be honest ). If he wants to use the amp he takes his guitar to another room
