How do I know if I can transition to a full-scale guitar with smaller hands?
I know - the obvious answer is to go to a guitar store and try it out. I have done that multiple times, then I come home and basically forget what that experience felt like. Playing for a few minutes is just not the same as playing for hours.
I think my hands are on the smaller side (I'm 5'6), I have a GS Mini and it feels pretty ideal, but I want to upgrade my guitar and I am not sure whether a full scale will feel big, or if I will get used to it in a few days
Can someone chime in, who started with small guitars then transitioned to full-scale?
