    Keep it up! I started playing guitar in November in my 50s. I play about 1-2 hours a day and I break up my sessions into smaller sessions due to work. Honestly, my fingers still hurt and I have the calluses. My guitars are set up properly. I suspect that i am still pushing down too hard to fret and I am learning to be more gentle when fretting. I have guitars with heavy and light strings, they still ache. I suspect a little discomfort here or there is going to happen but who knows since I have only been playing a short time. My friends who have been playing longer say it will get better but fingers will hurt playing long stretches . . . it seems worth it . . .

    congrats! Awesome guitar. It showed a lot of patience to let it acclimate, good job there. I was not so kind to my new Taylor, only let it sit an hour (because I wasn’t home when it was delivered).

    Beautiful guitar. I was just doing todays challenge and switching between my Martin HD-28 and Taylor 816ce. I really like my Martin but the Taylor neck and body feel at home. I pained between your guitar, the 814 and 816. All amazing guitars. Best of luck with your new ax!
