Comparatively few previous studies have investigated the hearing of pop musicians. On the average, a surprisingly low percentage (5%) of hearing loss was demonstrated in 160 pop musicians. The present material comprises 83 musicians, with an average exposure of 9 years. Group mean hearing thresholds show only a slight deviation from normal. Age, weekly
