I play Bass guitar every other week or so, and after about two hours my fingers kill. Any quick-fix remedies?
I usually play acoustic or electric guitar, and I have calluses from that. However, about every other week I fill in playing Bass guitar in a band, and about two hours into playing (out of about 4 hours) my fingers begin to kill. Obviously, I could play the Bass more often, and build up calluses in the areas where the strings touch, but I don't really have the ambition to do that. So I was wondering if anyone had any temporary remedies, such as tape or whatever?
As you pointed out, the obvious best way to cure this is to play bass more often and build up callouses on your finger tips, however, there are a few things that might help you out.
I play bass, and I used to have a problem with my fingertips blistering during practises or at gigs. An old friend and long time pro bass player told me this tip.
I will take a bottle of super glue with me to practises and on each finger, I put a couple of drops on the tip and rub it against my thumb in a circular motion, trying to completely cover the finger tip. Make sure you don't stay in contact too long because if they stick they're a pain in the back side to get apart. The super glue gives your fingers a rough finish and hardens them up. You can even put multiple layers on for more protection. Once you've finished, the glue will wear off, or you can just hold them under hot water and use soap.
Sounds strange, but that's my tip. Works for me!

Types of Guitars
Guitars are the most common instruments played by many music lovers of all ages. Even kids can easily learn to play the guitar. Choosing the right guitar is very easy. There are many types of guitars that can go along with any kind of music. All a guitar player needs to do is identify the kind of music he prefers to know which type of guitar is best for him.
The following are the most common types of guitars.
Classical Guitars
Classical guitars are the father of all guitars. They have been used for many genres and all kinds of music. Classical guitars come with nylon strings which give the guitar a unique and colorful sound. The sizes of classical guitars have been standard for many years. Classical guitars that are of the finest quality are made with spruce or cedar tops. The guitar is able to produce various sounds even with the use of fingernails.
Electric Guitars
Electric guitars are the next most common guitar especially in the 20th century. Electric guitars are known as the main attraction of rock music. These guitars have been famous since rock music was introduced and blend very well with jazz, pop and even blues music. The main difference between other guitars and electric guitars is that they are played with amplifiers because they are unable to produce sound without amplification.
Steel Guitars
Steel guitars acquired their name because they are literally made of steel. These types of guitars are played horizontally. A guitar player may place the guitar across his knees or legs or on a stand. The pedal steels of these guitars are the ones responsible for their unique sounds.
Bass Guitars
Bass guitars are similar to electric guitars. However, there are also variations in these guitars such as the acoustic bass guitars. Although bass guitars fall under the family of guitars, the sounds they produce are very distinctive and separate from any other guitar. The reason is that bass guitars usually have four strings unlike standard guitars that have six to twelve strings.
Many other guitars may be found on the market. There are also the archtop guitars, twelve strings guitars, solid body guitars and the resonator guitars. All these types of guitars produce different kinds of music that can satisfy the taste of many music lovers. All a person has to do is identify his taste for music to be able to decide which guitar is perfect for him and his music.
