You don't deserve koa.
How much emphasize/importance to you attribute to callouses?
for me, it's more about stamina.
for me, it's more about stamina. heavier callouses mean i can play longer without my fingers getting raw.
My fret hand has great callouses - my right hand doesn't. I mostly use my fingers and the backs of my finger nails for strumming and picking - I don't use a pick to often.
I've been experimenting with this lately, cause I can never get comfortable with picks. But how do you avoid that awful scraping sound when using the back of your nails to strum? I can't seem to find a way to NOT get that.
