Hi fellow musicians.

My name is Angel and I'm a female biker and a rock music lover from the UK.

I've always wanted to play, I've never had the time until the Covid UK lockdowns.

I'd my car wrote off by a bad driver and I now have neck and back injuries.

I've never ever touched a guitar before, a good time to learn, while I recover.

I've made 2 mistakes so far, bought a Tanglewood acoustic electro from Ebay and when it arrived it's too big. Not all guitars fit everyone. I've 5' 7".

Then I decided to buy a travel electric guitar called Anygig and I can't make a chord without muting a neighbour string or 2?

Sadly this wonderful guitar is too narrow and I've always been involved in gymnastics and my fingers are stronger than most. My fingers take too much space on the Anygig fretboard? I'm finding it hard to play a chord.

What would be the ideal beginners electric guitar for an athletic lassie please?

Many thanks

Angel
