I used to have verry calloussed hands with cracks and so . That time i played 4/or5 jamsessions a week, unamplified !(in the "80 s)
And afterwards piss on my hands and let it dry .( My teacher Mr Kofy Ayivor told me that! ) I have used idontknowhowemany meters of tape !
One day some guy told me to put vaseline (Perolium jelly) on my hands 1/2 hour before playing .
Now i have soft hands . No calluoses at all .
My girlfreind loves i too . I used to rip her stockings with my caloussed hands
!
Unintentionally afcourse !!!
Before i gave up smoking i used to pee blood after playing . Has anybody else that experience ?
Know that i gave up tabacco it never happend again . I always found this verry strange . My teacher told me that was normal tough !
