Help! I too have fat fingers . Actually, I thought that my fingers were rather skinny at least until I started playing guitar. I am very new at this too. Silly me, I thought I may have been doing fair with my learning that is until I try to do chords. Usually 2 fingered chords are not great but at least somewhat ok. But my fingers dont go well for the 3rd finger of a chord. My fingers just dont go that way. Usually just one string sounds awful. HELP please. I cannot do the D chord. i havent got to any other ones yet, because Icant seem to learn this one. I am getting frustrated. Help help help please. I dont know what more to do at this point.
