ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a training device useful to people who play guitar or similar stringed instruments. Its main purpose is to build hard callus pads on the ends of the fingers used in chording the guitar. Its secondary purpose is to strengthen the muscles used to press strings against frets. To accomplish the first, the device is provided with raised edges simulating the cross-section and texture of actual guitar strings. To meet the second need, the edges are mounted on a spring loaded button to simulate the give and tension felt in making chords. The entire device is easily held and fits in any pocket or purse.
