Admire your dedication! I have shortish, fat fingers. Have at times relied heavily on 3 and 4 string chords in order to play basic accompaniment for songs I’m learning. Then gradually expand as my fingers adjust.

Very sweet. Great combo of major and minor pentatonic scales!

Nice. Is that a maj7 on the F chord?

I make my own “in case humidifiers” from small plastic food storage containers and common sponges.

As one who has “failed” retirement twice, I wish you well. Hopefully guitar will help you establish the required new routine. Here’s to instruments that stay in tune and people likewise. 🙂

I love the concept. Let’s see. Open G, open D, dropped D, DADGAD – seems like many more guitars will be needed 🙂

12 string is a great idea. Be sure to consider playability and intonation accuracy, as well as sound.

Yes, try cleaning and be sure to wipe them down after each use. Coated strings may definitely help with longevity.

I find the 12 string is actually easier on my finger tips. Lighter gauge, less tension, pairs of strings distribute pressure. Best benefit, they make you sound better than you are 🙂

obviously ly a man of great foresight 🙂
