BUT there could be problems with your guitar that you have not detected yet because you're not doing things fast enough for them to become a problem.
This statement intrigues me. Can you go into more detail, or is it one of those things you can't describe, the guitar
just feels wrong and you know it immediately?
Bear in mind my earlier point - many a novice player has decided that they are incapable when the problem is they had a crap guitar in the first place. An experienced player will notice the problems that a novice will not and probably also cope with them better.
Say the action is high on your guitar. This slows things down because the physical effort to get the string down to the fret is greater and/or the distance the string must travel is increased. When you're changing very slowly between chords this is not going to be a problem for you. Or perhaps it will be but you think your hand is too weak or you just don't have the co-ordination.
I can't say how you would discern that or feel that it is bad other than to play on a guitar known to be of reasonable quality and properly set up. If things get easier straight away then there's a problem with your guitar.
