Haha, I feel for you mate, I really do

Luckily I'm not a hand holding kinda guy, so it's fine by me
if my girl don't want to hold hands

hahaha I didn't thought this was possible! You must have been practicing a lot!

I already said that in the "gmc hurted my fingers" thread: use moisturizing soap and a rich hand lotion. This will reduce or prevent calluses from getting to hard, but they'll still be hard enough to play guitar without pain.

I used to have horrible skin on my fingers because of too much playing but I never really cared a lot Now, after many years, I even see some slight deformations and I still don't care much.

They seem to go in cycles. Sometimes it will feel like I have no calluses at all...then other times they will be rock hard with sharp edges.

Mmmm.....

I love callusses, always handy to chew on if you're rally hungry

+1 I use mine to crack the eggs!

And why bother if Your wife doesn't want to hold hands? Other better looking women can think You're married.....

My fingers look like Frankenfingers due to playing and biting my nails (and sometimes skin...)..
...and you guessed it, I don't care much

This thread is just a GMC Funny waiting to happen

I have callusses, but it seems quite smooth.

Good Idea Staffy! Maybye if I get famous one day, and an interviewer ask me "Why did you start playing guitar?", I can answer "Easiest way to break an egg."

I got a wicked scar from when I got a blister that covered the entire tip of my index finger!


My wife hates it too, But its a scar of honor for me

Wait !
it's a trap
she is trying to get you to stop playing guitar and chose her
oh , i can can sense her real motives
yo "P" , walk back towards the sound of my voice and whatever you do , do not look back,
retreat

Do you have calluses on both hands or what's the real problem here?

Posted by: Daniel Realpe Mar 27 2010, 12:59 AM

man the drummer in my band really has calloused hands,

and he did had your same problem...hehe, I guess it's time for her to hold you by other parts such as your shoulders, or arms

Posted by: Ivan Milenkovic Mar 27 2010, 01:24 AM

Never had any problems with those, I have a smooth touch
