My brother bought me a $500 Martin. It was on sale so for sure the best guitar I’ve ever had. But I put it down for a couple years. When I tried to get back into it, my fingers hurt. A friend noticed the strings were too far from the guitar and recommended I take it to Guitar Center and they can fix it for $70.Welcome to the guitarded thread.

A good setup makes all the difference.

I got it back. It’s soooo much easier to play now. What happened? I didn’t have dehumidifier packets n my case.
it can be plugged into an amp but it’s an acoustic and I don’t need an amp.
I have to admit I sound good! Lol

The further you have to push the strings down, the more force you have to apply, because of the string tension.
Sparky, hubby plays music, mostly guitar also keyboard and some drums.
This helped inspire me to start playing again.Sparky, hubby plays music, mostly guitar also keyboard and some drums.
He hasn't played in a while though. He will bring it out now and then.
His amp now is a Fender and Custom amp. One of his brothers passed away and left him and other brethren's guitars and amps he has to go pick up one day. Marshal Pro 3 electric guitars.
