Guitarists!!! What are your hands like?

by **jimmy p** » Wed Sep 03, 2003 7:36 am

I have really small little fingers, i dont think its a disadvantage since my hands are quite big anyway...but i wish they were just a bit bigger.

I would say mine are average size.

I guess I'm kinda lucky... I play bass and guitar but for a chick I have fairly long fingers, which is cool for both instruments I spose.

But it's not the length of the fingers... it's how u use them... hehe

medium size which is good. But i would like to stretch further.

long fingers but i don't have the knowledge to do all those fancy jazz chords anyway.

mine are very short and stubby. terrible for playing guitar. although I do have that genetic thing where I can bend the tip of my third finger completely flat at a 90 degree angle. good for barring the top 3 strings.

Nothing more sexy than a female bass player...

I'm a guy but I have sort of girlish hands: thin, soft (that's what all the girls say anyway) hands with thin long fingers. I played basketball for 13 years so my hands , fingers and wrist are quite flexible. Yet I'm not a Mike McCready by miles. Not even a Stone, just an Eddie.

How does that affect your guitar skills? :p

my fingers got longer and more in a guitar player style shape during 10 years of playing....

but i dont think many people have the shape of fingers that jimi hendrix had!

finger size isn't that important just think about Jerry Garcia......

by **bambi girl** » Wed Sep 03, 2003 9:15 am

i have lil' hands....which make it hard to do barre chords, but solo'ing is okay still....with practise.
