hey guys
all of your information has been helpful but really hasnt answered my specific question.

i have hand that are stubby, short,(fat)you could say, and my hand and wrists are not that flexible.

i have a guitar and i've tried really hard to play and to in particular play chords and i've found it extremely hard to play them. i always seem to not be able to reach the correct finger placement. like i cant get 1 finger here and one there. and also whenever i do try the chords or just in general to play 1 note i seem to always no matter how angled i put my fingers always seems to hit the note next to it and muffle that string.

soo if any of you can help me find the right type or size of guitar i would be really happy.

thanks
shannon
