I use a bit of sponge. And I practise usually early in the morning (not too much time during the day hours), so everybody sleeps, and they don't hear the guitar. I also have some neighbours that play instruments (violin, piano, electric guitar, flute), so even if I do a bit louder during the day, it's no problem. But my brother used to play a drum set (in his own room), and he had lots of visitors every day, so he had made a schedule (discussed with neighbours) of playing hours. Finally, one of them found a place on the backyard of a school to put a the drumset and play.
