    One other thought is that when you put new strings on a guitar, you need to wind them slowly. There’s a lot of tension on the strings, and they haven’t been stretched out at all, so they will be very tight. I agree that you might want to visit your local shop for a set up and ask them to show you how to tune the guitar.

    Welcome to TAC @FloridaKen239 ! It can seem daunting at the beginning, but you’re right about it becoming more second nature or easier as you go forward. If you need a break, feel free to mark the lesson complete and move forward. You can always revisit it at a later time, and who knows, maybe it will be easier when you go back to it. It’s about having fun.

    Hi @queenkobraxx – My hands are smaller, and some chord transitions and chords can be difficult at time. I will say that through playing this past year, my fingers are more limber and have the ability to stretch much further than at the beginning. Keep up the stretching exercises and practice as best you can. One trick during lessons is putting a capo on (I fret the 5th fret and practice higher on the neck where it’s thinner and the frets are closer. Much easier to play scales and such.

    Unfortunately I wasn’t able to get any audio from the audio link @davefive . Not sure if it’s because I’m on an iPad or not.
