I have been learning guitar for almost a year now. I am 53 yrs old and have large fingers. I bought an Epiphone JP Studio Goth because of its wide neck and general feel. It is easier to play than most of the others I have tried but when it comes to some 4 finger cord I just cant get my fingers to spread out enough and as far as barre cords I am stumped. I do the stretches shown here before playing and have even made a few up for individual fingers trying to get them to spread out like I want them to. I know everyone says it comes with practice but I am not seeing it. I practice every day. Any suggestions? Am I too far along to make them work?
