Takes a while to bring those fingers up to par. I been playing near 20 years now and if I set the guitar down for a week my fingers kill when i pick it back up again.

89, you are correct. like i said, i played constantly for a few months, got pretty good if i do say so myself, but then i put it down for a couple months and my fingers turned to mush on the ends. and NO ONE can have my car now. she will die with me :pface

OUCH!!! Someone has a 'tude tonight!

Don't feel bad about your sore little finger tips man. I;m having a hard time typing lately... as the tip of my middle finger was completely crushed Saturday. It's black, painful, wiggles side to side, swollen, and skinned. I had a several-hundred-pound timber roll over and fall on it.... crushing it into a rock. I feel your pain brother... about 100 times over!

I'm six weeks into beginner guitar lessons and I'm getting some pretty gnarly knots on the ends of my fingers.

Wish I'd taken lessons as a kid - This is difficult!
