Hey Tony. I’m 67 and have rheumatoid arthritis. I’m retired after having and beating stage 4 lymphoma. I told my doctor that I’m learning to play and he said from looking at the X-rays of my hands, unless he heard that from me he wouldn’t believe it. I’m a retired cabinet maker and my hands are still in pretty good shape. I’m determined to do this and I like the way you go about teaching. You seem like a cool dude and someone I could actually hang with. Lol. Where I struggle is with the fingering like for example the G chord. I spend days just trying to get my fingers to those positions. I started out with “ breakthrough guitar” but find myself more drawn to you and your personality. As I said I’m determined and feel the need to be with my guitar. Haha. My girlfriend is amazed at how much I practice at it. She’s hard of hearing which at this point in my guitar journey is probably a godsend. It’s really a relationship with the guitar and now you. I look forward to learning.
