    Looking at one of the daily challenges a while ago I noticed how short Tony’s fingernails are on his fretting hand. Since then I have tried to keep mine as short. It really helps with accuracy. Also, does anyone else think their fingernails are growing faster the more you play?

    Happy festuvus

    @Timbothirroul They are growing the same it’s just that now you are playing a little more attention to them. I would suggest after clipping your nails file them with a fine nail file. Your nail will have a sharp edge and you don’t want that digging into your fretboard.

    Yes. It seems to me my fingernails grow faster now that I am playing more. 🙂

    Yes @Timbothirroul , I clip mine much more often than I did before I started playing on a regular basis😱

    I recently watched that episode of Seinfeld, it was hilarious🤣 Do you still have your Festuvus Pole up?
