57 yr old, learning to play. Wanted to say hello!
Hello
# 1
Hello! I am 58 and am learning to play right along with you. Has been a dream of mine for many years. Best of luck to you on learning the guitar. You can do it. We have conquered more difficult things than this, havent we? ;-)

Finger tips on my left hand very tender after practicing. Wish I could speed up the callous building process.

Stay with it. The callouses will come. I have been at it about 5 weeks and am getting starting to get some good callouses on my fingertips. I found an added benefit of the harder finger tips is the notes are easier to hit cleanly.
