Hey @Mimer , another option is to use a capo at the 5th fret and practice there, because you are essentially shortening the fretboard and the frets are a lot closer there. I fret at the 5th fret often when I have stretching difficulty. Also, it helps to do stretching exercises and gradually increase the span of stretch. For example, place all four fingers a line on the high e string starting at the 7th fret (index 7th, middle 8th, ring 9th, and pinky 10th. Play the index and then move just the index to the next fret (6th) and the back to the 7th, and then to the 5th and back to the 4th. When you can’t reach any further repeat the entire series. You can do the sa,e for the pinky. Another way is to use your index on the 7th, middle the 8th of the B, ring the 9th of the G and then stretch your index the same by leaving all your fingers in place while moving just the index to the next fret and then back and then to the next fret.
