I always wanted to learn to play one and now with this cord buddy I night just make it. My mother had a old Stella but the strings were so far off the frets that about 30 minutes with it and my fingers were so sore I could not stand to touch them. I saw an interview with a country singer and she said she learned to play on a old Stella but the strings were so high of the frets that her fingers almost bleed so that must have been a common problem with them, said the only reason she had hung on to it was that it was a gift from her grandfather.
