    Great to see you back, and keep us updated on the hand issues, I’m sure your not alone. And none of us are getting any younger. So any tips might be great

      Thanks dude, straight off I've noticed I definitely need a lighter gauge strings and avoid using the fingers that cause pain.

    So sorry to hear you are suffering from what has ailed me for years. Be careful with pain killers - they fool you into thinking you can still play fine but the damage you do accumulates if you overdo it. I am down to half an hour a day as I overdid it in the past. Love the Tele . Take care and rock on (with care !).

      Oh yes I'm very wary of what painkillers can do, I know when I'm over doing it. I have trouble with wrists and elbows shoulders too, plus every other joint in my body 🤣 I'm not a big fan of pharma drugs so see what the quacks prescribe. Thanks mate.

  • @ccjmusic
    @ccjmusic Před 9 měsíci +1

    I definitely feel for you. I have that same problem with my fingers at times. I have never been able to play guitar properly because of a combination of my fingers and my eyesight, so I play with my weird one finger method and still have to swap which finger I use often. Apart from being unable to play chords, I manage to play lead in my style with just one finger. May be worth you giving it a try to keep you feeling creative.

    • @theguitarmanifesto
      @theguitarmanifesto  Před 9 měsíci +1

      Thanks bro, I'm not quite down to one finger yet 🤣 but I'm working round the pain and stiffness

    • @ccjmusic
      @ccjmusic Před 9 měsíci

      @@theguitarmanifesto It is definitely a way to play that is easier on the fingers if you ever feel like playing but your fingers don't want you to. It does force you to play in a different style though which may or may not be a creative spark also. I hope you get things sorted out so you are pain free.

    Mate this also happened to my friends' husband but advanced, also a younger guy than usually getting it, like you. She's researching best methods too. Have you tried Omega 3, fish oil and curcuma supplements this helps as an anti-inflammatory. Cool finds on the Squire's!!! you always nab the deals!! maybe an orange pickguard on the strat would be cool and matches your chair!!! cheers! 🤣😂 🎸

    Awesome Strat love the color I seen this video when it came out but couldn't lift my arms for months to type to tell ya sorry to hear your in that pain! It Sucks you have the arthritis issues my aunt had that bad she had to move to Arizona to dry weather to help it.. I'm working my way to getting a Squire Sonic Stratocaster in white to make a SRV Strat only thing that sucks is the white Sonic strats have a maple neck SRV's strat had a rosewood fretboard but I can always change out the neck to make my build look close to SRV's Charley and his was Olympic white but regular white will do me just fine for my future build...I feel ya on the meds and how they screw up our body 😂 i just recovered from a collapsed lung I been down for two months 😂 great to see your video and you Manifesto!

    • @theguitarmanifesto
      @theguitarmanifesto  Před 7 měsíci +1

      Maybe go for the Affinity Strat for your SRV build, if you get a pre 2018 you'll have the rosewood fingerboard.
      Thanks man, old age is catching up quick! Mix of hard work and a rock n roll lifestyle 😄 one day we'll move to Southern Europe for all year round warmer weather.
      Ah mate sorry to hear you've have been so sick, it never ends!

My doctor put me on chantix and I got bad side effects once again from stop smoking meds 😂. The affinity has a nice fretboard definitely I'll see if I can find an affinity one but all I see are the black ones with the hard tail and their white ones have the tremolo system it's gotta be a hard tail one I'm stuck on the hard tail for the build I want and I want to experience a hard tail compared to my fender with the tremolo I have already... ✌️
