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.

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.
