it depends which wrist...if its your fingerboard wrist youll probably be pretty board but if its your strumming wrist you should be able to do some fingerboard exercises and such to keep you entertained

Youd think youd be a little better if you actually play that often, better step it up to 12 hours a day I guess. j/k, not trying to open that can of worms again, just like busting your balls since you can dish it out and not take it. Good luck on a fast recovery.

I don't think 6 hours is a lot. I normaly do that, and have been for about 4.5 years. Whenever I am not working, I have a guitar in my lap or straped on, or in it's case on my back.

Yeah, i practice usually about 3hrs a day. That is only because i don't work until about 4-5 at night. That totally sucks that you broke your wrist, my worst nightmare

My only advice is, depending upon which wrist it is, continue to practice on your better wrist whether it be fingerpicking or chords and scales. You can also put your guitar learning to the brain and study up on your theory. I've had horrible dreams about breaking my wrist or my fingers or my arm in fear of not being able to play. Just take care and in no time you'll be strummin'/fretting again but don't let it stop you from practicing or learning more about music.

Oh yeah, if you get anything stronger than vicodons, send me some

6 hours is a lot

3 hours is still a quite a bit

for me 1-2 hours usually does the trick
