Stretch those fingers. The problem isn’t your fingers, they have to be trained to move in positions that they have never had to do before. Yeah, I agree Tony makes it looks easy, but he’s been doing it for a lot of years. I have a beautiful full size Martin that I rarely play because it’s HUGE! It’s just so hard to get my fingers around the neck on it. My advice would be to pick up a smaller guitar. 3/4 or 1/2 size? You could get a used smaller guitar just to use for practicing on. A classical 1/2 size with nylon strings for practice, easy on the fingers, easy to see what you are doing. If it is easier to use, you’ll find you’ll play more. You have to practice, but the goal is to play and enjoy. Good luck.
