Members Doctor49 Posted December 25, 2009 Members Share Posted December 25, 2009 That's right, I always prefer women with small hands. That way, when they grab onto it, it looks bigger. Just a little tip from Uncle Otis. that took a while - but I love it when a sleeper is woken! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members EADGBE Posted December 25, 2009 Members Share Posted December 25, 2009 Frederic Chopin had tiny little troll hands and he played the crap out of a piano, an even tougher accomplishment then playing giutar with small hands, in my opinion at least to play the way he did... so yes it can be done. How bad do you want it? How do you know he had small hands? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members hammeredon Posted December 25, 2009 Members Share Posted December 25, 2009 I have little bitch hands... On his youtube videos, Herman Li from Dragonforce looks like he has small hands also.

Members straycat113 Posted December 26, 2009 Members Share Posted December 26, 2009 The only thing big hands will help you on is for big stretches. Period, after that they can even hinder some players so it works both ways. I have short thick fingers and wish I had an extra digit on my pinkie or otherwise I am fine. Look at Randy's hands my 11 year old has bigger hands then him, and yet look at how much of a stretch he is getting.PRACTICE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
