[HANASHIR:4483] Re: Occupational hazards of guitar playing

[Ketzev2 <Ketzev2...>]

Laura--

I wholeheartily agree with you. I even emailed Linda privately too. But you 
make an excellent point. Like skis or a tennis racquet, guitars should be 
chosen by us to fit our size as well. The size of the guitar, length, shape 
and depth, should all be considered when looking to purchase a good guitar. 
Even when sitting a larger (D-size or Jumbo) can be way too big for a lot of 
us. I've switched to smaller (size and depth) guitars over the last 5 years 
and been much more comfortable. 

Might sound crazy to some people, but it's really true. I can attest to it 
personally.

Keep loose everyone (especially those shoulders!!....)
