My Playing Update - This Old Broad is Doing Good!

I've been playing the chords for Wonderful Tonight (Eric Clapton) and Hootie and the Blowfish song! I am actually playing!! I'm excited.

I really like both songs. The Hootie song was a favorite of a close friend of mine that passed away a few years ago so it has special meaning to me.

I've had a little pain in my left hand and sometimes my hand "locks" up when I need to play the G chord. I'm not sure if it's the neck on my guitar (perhaps I need a thinner neck) or if it will just take time for my hand muscles to get used to it. My husband is going to lower the action on my guitar for me and see if that helps. I hope so because I LOVE my guitar and don't want to have to get a different one.
