Fat fingers on a Squier Stratocater

You can play the F Major Triad found in the middle of your F chord as a substitute.

 

Yep. I never played a barre F chord ever. Just like a c but ring finger on D string instead of A string

 

3 yrs and gig nights !!!! cor I wish ???? onwards and upwards eh , I will still keep plugging away

 

If the nut slots are cut high, the F will be very difficult.

 

Many squier guitars are not well set up when you get them. If the nut is too tall it will make the f chord difficult. If the action is set high it may make all the chords difficult. Especially for a beginner.

Get the setup dialed in and it may play a lot easier. I do support 9s for a beginner.

 

The flame on that neck is so beautiful, i just can't stand it!

 

My cat licks mine

 

Thanks. It was a stroke of luck finding it

 

Hate F - makes my hand hurt.

 

To the OP. I have a Brian May replica that is 47mm wide at the Zero Fret and an inch and a quarter thick at the zero fret. I think it’s about an inch and a half thick beyond the 12th fret. It is only 24 inch scale though. If you want something really big, you will probably have to go Custom.
