Hello, not sure how short is short but I believe the neck is narrow enough where most people regardless of finger length should be able to play the guitar. I would take a chance because the acoustics are really nice.

I have short fat fingers and it's my favorite guitar to play. I had a takamine that I disliked immensely because of the narrow fretboard. The short fingers should not make a big difference. Good luck.

The neck is narrower than some guitars, but you would be wise to check the actual dimensions and compare that to your finger lengths, as well as to other guitars you've tried.

The nut width (width at the 1st fret) I believe is 1.8 inches. I also have somewhat short and chubby fingers. This guitar will be easier to play with the wider width.

This guitar is a standard sized dreadnought. If you are looking for something smaller, you need to get a 3/4 size acoustic. I would recommend the Taylor- Baby Taylor Acoustic. Thanks Marjorie.

That's a tough question! The guitalele fingers just like the guitar except you will be in a different key. You need to take some guitar lessons. Everything you learn about the guitar can be applied to the guitalele. If you have friends who play the guitar, ask them to help you get started. Happy strumming! .....Bill

This guitar might be too small for him, it really depends on the size of his fingers and hand span. I would take him to a guitar shop and find out if it's the right fit.. then come back online and buy through Amazon ! You won't find better prices or service anywhere else for all musical gear... I haven't !

If the knobs on the tuning pegs are roughly the size of that of a standard guitar, or even smaller, it should still work.

No, It is a right hand guitar. I guess you could string it left handed if so desired.

The guitar might be a little smaller for you. You may want to try the crescent 48 inch guitars so you will have more arm space and room to play on the fret board.

Hi M. Stewart, I own a G9126 and even that it is a small beautiful guitar the neck is almost as wide as a regular size guitar. I think the space between frets and strings will be to big for a small hands kid. The Cordoba guilele and Yamaha gitalele will be more suitable for your kid (because of the thinner neck they have), they are both cheaper on price and quality but not that much on sound. The Yamaha comes in different colors.....you can also check smallguitars.com

Yes. The guitar we received has low action and light strings. Easy on the fingers. Very happy with it.

Hi, AEA. This was the second guitar that I bought, so I was a novice when I started using it as well. I would say that neck is about average in comparison to other guitars, but it's been perfect for me (I have average-sized hands). Other than that, it plays very well and has given me no issues in the six months that I've had it. I would definitely recommend it, AEA, but if your hands are really small, then you might want to seek out a guitar with a thinner neck.

Assuming you are an adult, it should not be a problem. You'll love the guitar.

I'm the same height, 5'5"-ish. The FG700S is playable but a smaller one would probably be easier. After having this guitar for a while, I went to a guitar store to look for a more comfortable guitar. The guys at the store advised me to look into parlor guitars or "folk-size" guitars instead of dreadnoughts. (I haven't bought a smaller guitar yet but am seriously considering purchasing one soon.)

I would guess so . It is fretless. Available to ship at Max's Guitar Store.

I have this guitar and i bet that it would be a bit big for you...I also have a FS720s, it is a bit more compact, just as nice of a guitar and would fit you better

I believe so. I have short fingers and the glove fingertip openings are below the top knuckle. Plenty of freedom!

It's a standard size 3/4 guitar about 38" x 14" would be my guess. I am not at home right now. My daughter has grown out of it but if you are 5' 2" and shorter probably good to stick with this. The nut is also smaller about 1.5 inches (means the strings are closer together so if you have skinny fingers will work great).
