No worries...glad to try to help.

Young whipper-snapper or old fart...we've all been where you are so don't let it get you down :-). Stick with it and you will get past this hurdle!

Guitar players come in all shapes and sizes. There are guys like Eric Johnson whose hands look like they were designed specifically to play the guitar - long slender fingers with large hands. Then there are others like one of the instructors here (can't remember his name) who doesn't look like a guitar player at all with meaty hands and sausage fingers, yet he plays incredibly well!! I don't mean this to be disparaging at all, it's just that everybody is built differently and you work with what you got.
