I still get the calluses but not as quickly or as heavy.

Cordovan face with buckskin backing 52# on the fingers. Changing the thickness of your tab will cange your tune, due to changes in dynamic spine.

i use the standard soma saker 2; 42 pounds on fingers. No problem with that but the leather is wearing off fast. I'll probably get Oberon to fit in as a backing.

It is interesting, the people here likes to use Oberon.
