I have short stubby hands and have trouble fretting my guitar. Is there a way to get around this.

Hand size isn't as important as finger flexibility and strength. Many players have developed a "reach" that adapts traditional chords to their style.

Keep on playing music!

hi you can find a thinner guitar neck or excercise your fingers .always warm-up and you can still do all the chords try chord inversions .music is beautiful never stop playing i had the same problem and overcame it .
