My goal was just to be able to play a few chords to accompany some campfire singing, or my church's children's choir: I'm not trying to become the next Hendrix. That said, I was having a lot of trouble even playing "simple" chords because I have very soft, wide fingers and I just couldn't get them to not mute the neighboring strings. This device did the trick. Within minutes of rubber-banding it on and adjusting the height screws (an important step), I was making beautiful chords. With one week's practice I was able to easily accompany a group of singing children with the four or five chords that I had learned. (And those sweet kids even said I was the best guitar player they had ever heard--lol! best possible beginning audience, am I right?!) As an learning-aid I put colored-coded stickers right on the button-surfaces that I needed for my chords. I haven't had any trouble with the ez-fret coming off or damaging the guitar, although it does slide and sometimes needs scooted back to position, and I did have to adjust the screws a couple of times. Some people complained that it made chords harder to reach, but I haven't had any problems, and I have the smallest hands of any adult woman I have ever met, though I do play the piano and cello, so I've had some practice stretching my reach. I know, short hands, thick fingers--and I'm not even overweight--how does that happen? Anyway, I highly recommend this for casual guitar playing. If you want to become the next Hendrix, you'd probably better learn to do it the normal way, though.Ver másVer menos
