Practice makes perfect. or at least better.

@Mrfredsporty , sounds like a great addition to your family. The dreadnoughts are a little too big for me but if you can handle the power in those strings, you won’t even need an amp. Congrats and enjoy. Was this a Christmas gift to yourself?

This is a good idea to go through this stuff at night while trying to get some shut eye. Sure beats counting sheep.

I worry about the same thing, over tuning. I down loaded a tuner that I use on my IPhone. It gives me a full range of tones. Try it out and see if you like it. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/instuner-free-chromatic-tuner/id603425027?platform=iphone It’s free and I use it with the tuner that I have clipped on my guitar. Just a little safety net. Glad to hear you didn’t put your eye out when that string broke and don’t worry about the neck. I’m sure no harm was done.

I am really sorry to hear this happened to you. We are all behind you 100% with this. Learning guitar left handed is an option. You could work in alternate tunings like Joni Mitchell does. She had polio as a youngster and it weakened her fretting hand considerably.

@Loraine , A new guitar!! Good for you! And an awesome song to break it in with. Good strumming and singing!

Congrats to you. You’ll love them both!!

COming back up after the roll was a killer. Glad it isn’t just me. ha ha ha

@Loraine , I didn’t know that about the pinkie and index finger sharing ligaments. Thanks! also thanks for the exercise tips.

@Loraine, If you can add the newest FBW to your game plan, I think you’ll like it. I still have to finish up with it. I’m just starting week4.

Seriously @Loraine, I still can’t finger pick very well with my 12 string. But, I’ll tell you what, your fingers will get stronger holding down that many string thou. I’ll be on the forum more. Just got away from it for a while.
