Sounds like you @queenkobraxx and I have similar hand and wrist issues. My fellow guitar geeks have already given you sound advice. I do find my Taylor GS mini easier to use compared to my Taylor 414. I prefer to use the mini as my TAC workhorse for the skills courses and daily challenges. Once feeling comfortable I try using the other guitar. I do Tony’s stretching exercises and focus on wrists, hands and fingers before I pick up a guitar. Been with TAC for almost 6 months and noticed my dexterity in each hand’s digits are much more flexible. Best advice is to do the “10 minutes +” each day and the stretching anytime you can. Good luck with building up your finger tip pads too (found using an ice cube to rub them briefly reduces the swelling and discomfort). Play on queenkobraxx!
