Some callousing will likely always remain, but a good guitar can be the difference between *really* enjoying it and just using it, in the same way that you can spread cold butter on a bread after a fashion, but not recommend it. A really good guitar plays itself the way creamy butter spreads nicely on your toast. I'm a MGG fan for several months now, but I've been playing guitar for 38 years. Glad you're getting into it. Found you hear as I'm trying out twitter and wanted to someone to follow. The fingertip pain can be greatly eased by a high quality guitar if you decide you will continue with the instrument.

Congratulations on finding a good guitar teacher out there; there are a lot of bad ones. It's also good that you are enjoying it at an early stage, a lot of people are put off by the early pain of not being able to do much. I hope you both continue the interest and especially continue together. That’s great, Dave. Congratulations on finding a good guitar teacher out there; there are a lot of bad ones.
