Guitar buddy
The item couldnโt fit my classical guitar . Itโs too small . It says fits all standard guitar . I like to find one that fits a larger guitar neck . 43mm is the one I got . I need a 50mm plus unit . Canโt find one on Amazon .

Easy
Does what it says however you still need to learn other chords for guitar so if anything still built s your calluses up,and you can practice your strumming easier.

Not Quite as Easy as They Say..... But...
So I am retiring soon to sail around the world in a catamaran and forget about everything else. What better way to spend the copious time available while circling the planet at nine miles per hour than learning to play the guitar and showing off for the dolphins? Unfortunately, despite a long held desire to learn the guitar, I have the attention span of an over caffeinated squirrel, and as such I knew the patience needed to learn this skill was simply beyond me.... And then I saw the Chord Buddy. "It's cheating", said the purists. To which I thoughtfully replied, "bite me!!", and immediately ordered one, along with a tuner and a competent enough beginner level guitar (a Jasmine cutaway of some type for about $110). It all arrived in good shape, and with a pair of instructional books, although without much in the way of instructions as to how to put it on the guitar. Fortunately there are plenty of YouTube videos to solve that issue, and within half an hour (turns out I am not a very good tuner on top of having a miniscule attention span), I was hammering away at my first chords. And chords they were!! OK. I will not be impressing Mark Knoffler any time soon, but they sounded more or less how one would expect a chord to sound, and I was very pleased with myself. There was an annoying string buzz I could not get rid of, despite scouring YouTube and trying several fixes (more on that later), but after an hour or so I was belting out "Tom Dooley" (I am an artist now, so artistic license was taken in regards to "belting out"), and really rather enjoying the whole thing. But.... There's always a but. That string buzz was really annoying. I found a way to get rid of it. It involved lying the guitar across my lap and using my left thumb to, very forcefully, press the chords while I stummed across my lap. While this was functional, I know the dolphins will laugh at me when they see this, so it is not really a fix. I am not a big fellow (vertically), and have very small hands, so pressing the Buddy hard enough to avoid dead strings, or that damnable buzzing, was simply not doable. I am looking for a work around, and as I am still enjoying the progress I have made, I will continue to try and sort this out. I have thought about adding another layer of rubber to the boots on the D and B tabs to bring them closer to the strings and reduce the pressure needed, but I am not sure that will solve the issue. I will update this review as I continue, and with luck determine a way to make this innovative product more user friendly for me, and give it five stars. I think it is a great way to get your start at learning the guitar, and I am hoping I can continue to make the progress at the rate I have up until now.... And avoid laughing dolphins. 5 Day Update: Unfortunately I can't get this very annoying vibration out of the Buddy. I've looked at all the videos, both from Buddy and from other sources. Double and triple checked it's position and angle. When the buddy isn't being used the strings ring clear. During chords, the metallic vibration is very strong, and quite annoying. The only solution is an almost brutal downward pressure that is unmanageable by my pinky, and nearly so for my other fingers. I'm still looking for a way to add to the length of the booties to decrease the distance between the strings and the rubber, and maybe that will work. A bit disappointed now, as I was initially quite excited. Will update. Update (About 20 hours playing): So I contacted the Chord Buddy folks about the buzzing. They were unable to diagnose the issue, but play tested a Chord Buddy to ensure it worked, and sent it to me for free. Very nice of them indeed. The string buzzing still persists (as you can hear on the video above), but I am enjoying myself anyhow. I am thinking my tiny hands may be causing me to hit other buttons, so perhaps I should try a Ukulele (there's such a thing as a Uke Buddy), but in the meantime I chose a song I learned to show you what progress an absolute beginner had managed after 15 to 20 hours. I rather enjoy this thing, and while yes... its a bit cheaply made... It's a training aid and not supposed to last forever, and the company is attentive and helpful. Worth a shot, folks.
