Ive a whole new respect for guitar players. They make it look easy and its the instrument I wanted to be able to play. I may try and persevere but its not looking good
I know that feeling, thought I would never manage a (barre) Cm but now it's easy-peasy, some simple looking chords still trip me up though e.g. the simple Dm using first three frets. Small hands doesn't help - by the way I have a small scale classical for sale if anyone needs one it's 628mm. Details by PM.
