You can achieve anything in life with a gun pointed to your head

I don't think I have short fingers per se, but I don't seem to have much flexibility to stretch laterally.
Although I've been convinced it's been important for a long time I recently played a 25.5 guitar and I'm not sure that I can tell the difference compared to the size of issue that I've made it in my mind.
Certainly there would be way more improvement in my playing just from practicing more.

I still play all scale lengths but gravitate to shorter scale with the arthritis.
none of that is an impediment to self expression.
for a lot of things in life if you are serious about a particular activity as you get more advanced you get something made to fit you
As for scale length, I never notice much - if any - difference between 24.75" (or less), 25" and 25.5" but I'm just fart-arsing around. If I played "properly" I might be more aware of the nuances.
I'm one of those people who really don't worry too much about scale length, string gauge or fretboard radius. It just gets in the way.
But even so, I do notice players with smaller hands than most because it reinforces the idea that hand size only matters if you let it matter. And those players don't let it matter. So neither should I! :-)
