Post by: ddown on July 26, 2022, 03:38:13 PM

 ;D Just got it home with New Taylor ad22e american dream. Needed a small Guitar recovering from hand surgery lost all feeling in fingers after botched Carpal Tunnel surgery for 4 years I had no feeling. Last week had 2 hours of surgery everything is back. Dr said guitar playing is great Therapy :D A little every day for first month. Went to local shop for a few days to test it thumbs up all good. Wrist fatigues after a bit rest and ice. I'm on the mend and back to playing.

Played every guitar in stock the shorter scale and the Taylor neck was the ticket for Comfort. Great amplified as well.

Wish u a speedy recovery ddown!
Congrats on your new AD22e.  It's on my radar for my next guitar.  I want to play the AD22e against the 322e to see which one I like.

Enjoy your new Taylor!

Indeed, good news on all fronts, DDown! 

Long ago I had a bout with Carpet Tunnel and it freaked me out!  Slow process back, and I was chastised by other players (rightfully so!) to ease in carefully so as not to prolong the healing process.  Tread carefully, and I wish you a full recovery!! :D

^^ Sage advice.  As my wife and I often joke:  "Don't be a guy!"  Guys tend to get back into an activity way too fast after an injury, as soon as they start feeling better, and well before the healing process is complete.  That can set your ultimate recovery back considerably.
