I think I'm going to start a blog. I have to find a place to post it and don't know anything about that but Google is your friend for that type of stuff. I think I have a lot to offer for guitarists with large hands and very fat fingers. I have learned a lot about that after having to deal with it for about the last 40 years or so. Depending upon what I name the blog I can include recording tech tips as well. I have been doing that almost as long as I have been playing guitar. I started diddling with tape machines when I was in high school and it escalated from there.
Has anyone here started a blog?

I haven't and know little about the platform but you might want to check out Substack.

I was one of the OG bloggers up until Facebook came along.
Blogger.com would be a good place to start.

You and Redd Volkaert would get along just fine, ninworks. I've never understood how he can play so well while wearing a catcher's mitt on each hand. His fingers are about as wide as the spaces between the frets. Redd Handed:

His fingers are about as wide as the spaces between the frets. Redd Handed: Yeah, I have that problem too. At least my fingers are longer than his. Ya gotta use and develop what you are able to do to its fullest extent and let the rest go. It can impact your palying style considerably.

I’ve considered a YouTube channel for awhile. I’m convinced it would be well received as there’s not anything like my idea out there. However, like all social media, there are endless trolls, know-it-alls, asshats, etc… on YouTube. I’m just not sure I want to put up with that nonsense. I have a relatively calm, stress free life at this time and don’t want to do anything to jeopardize it.
