Hand Exerciser
Guitar finger pain - how to handle this?
To learn (steel string) guitar / practitioner - I've been at it for months, but I put put the guitar in about a month, and now it's like I'm about back to where I started so much a form callouses. Before when I had more callouses - The formed scab-like for (3 tips of the middle finger on my left hand) - a little disturbing. I do not have delicate hands and my hands have always been typically strong. I have one of those finger-grip criminal exercises (with plastic "guitar string" insert) - should probably just keep working at it?
The other guys was a little undiplomatic about it, but they are largely correct. Thingie finger will not help to develop callouses. This can be done only by pain LOL. The thing is not pushing it too much. Reforming them will take a few weeks. Until you get them better, play for hours a day, rest one day to play an hour, rest one day longer to play, rest, play longer, etc. .. approximately one week and a half you should have developed callous enough to get started again. Sometimes I would rest up for long before a concert because I was just tired of playing for awhile, and my fingers would get a little soft and I wanted to play as long as I would get blisters on my fingertips. So you pop em when you are complete and callous comes right back after a day or two. Now that I retired from the stage results I get on a play and not have to do what I just told you to do a reform of a slow increase in practice time and allow the nerve endings in the fingertips a rest before punishing them again. You can even try a lighter gauge cord for a while and make sure the action on your guitar is low enough. I used to have a Fender acoustic guitar, which hurts my fingers to play, even when I was completely calloused and was gigging 3 or 4 night per week. Good candy and have fun
