Hi

As a newbie, I could really do with some advise on 2 things. First thing - When I'm playing A minor, I really can't seem to use finger 1 and 2 on the first and second fret. I automatically use finger 1 and 3. Is this a habit I should try and break as a complete beginner?

Second thing - I'm starting on a classical guitar which I find a bit big. It's getting easier but wondering if it may be worth getting a smaller acoustic. Could it help with the finger thing? 🤷🏻‍♀️
