Wallet on the snare: classic or dud?

I've done various stuff like this. I like muffled snare sounds, and its also a good way to cover up for less than perfect tuning (and tuning a snare drum well is a bitch).

A lot of older snares have a little built in muffle under the head that you can tighten or loosen.

I used this thing on a couple recording sessions and a Prince tribute show, it really brings out the low mids and sounds a lot more like a compressed '70s snare.

(if you drape it over the entire drumset you can sort of sound like fleetwood mac)

Does this work for guitar too?
