It's going to be a struggle if you're just starting until you get some strength in your hands and fingers. Just don't give up. Like others said, you'll be able to work the guitar with the disability.

There are those finger exercisers that alot of music stores sell that can help build up some strength and flexibility, but really, the best way to build up strength and flexibility is....keep playing guitar!!!

Just keep playing........you'll find ways around it if you try. You get older, things change, you adapt, you conquer.

I like what you have to say Oldguy! Reminds me of my favorite quote of all time - "That which does not kill us makes us stronger!". Something I have always tried to live by, but sometimes as in this case with my finger, I get a little off track and allow discouragement to seep in. Thanks again!
