Hi @Dimebag, I agree with Alfred on the classical guitar. I picked up one so I could get in extra playing power without killing my fingertips. Talking about fingertips… that what should be holding those strings down. I saw that on one of Tony’s videos. Also… Is the width wide enough on your current guitar for your fingers? I know my Cordoba guitar(1/2 size) is a little wider than my full size Martin. One last idea, maybe drop down to a smaller guitar. I’m a girl (ok, old girl), so my Martin can be overpowering big at times. But, a parlor guitar is a tad smaller, then to continue sizing down is the 3/4, 1/2, 1/4. I have a full, 1/2 and 1/4 size. The 1/4 size is great for picking up when I’m at my desk. Right now I have my eye on a Taylor GS Mini which would be a 3/4 size. I played one at the guitar store and it was a perfect fit for me. Never thought of that before I joined this group. Don’t stop playing! Go to the guitar store and pick up the various sizes and give them a go (it’s free to try). Remember, you can do this.
