    Surely the rubber will prevent the tone getting from your fingers to the fretboard.
    Don't touch that dial.

    No doubt Eric Johnson will advise on the tonal properties of the different colours.

    They're for bass players - one colour for each string...

    Don't know about pencil top rubbers, but if I haven't played a guitar for a couple of months I do apply superglue to the tips of my fretting digits. When the superglue has hardened it saves me the string pain until the calluses have reformed. 
    God help us if there's another war.

    SRV used to do this finger tips with superglue and touch his right forearm, wait a few secs, and rip off skin.... a skin glue skin sandwich..... tone for days. 

    Don’t try this at home kids

    You can get silicone finger tip thimble protectors. I hear metal, ceramic, and tortoise shell ones are also available.

    latex gloves for me
    If you heard me play, you'd probably assume I was wearing mittens...  :/
    Not much of the gear, even less idea.
