Think about it.....when was the last time you saw a left handed built piano or keyboard? :lol:

I've seen this statement before or one simular, my answer is the same. A left-handed piano would have the bass and treble keys reversed. I think that would make the piano much easier for a left-handed person to play. :wink:
The problem with us left-handers is that we are so use to adapting to right-handed things, that we don't always know we're mostly disadvantaged in a right-handed world.
A couple of advantages, It's easier to share a mic with a righty. It gives you an advantage pitching a baseball. :D

Hi. I don't see what's the big deal. I'm a LOL militant Leftist
(a proud Lefty) anyways, I learned to play the Violin Right handed
I learned that before I learned the Guitar. I tried to play the guitar
right-handed, but it really just was not a good thing. I don't know why.
So I went Lefty.
When Computers came along, I knew from my experience as a
lefty guitar player and things like spiral notebooks that I better learn to
use the computer "right handed" seeing as about 11 out of 10 people
I know are right handed. To fit in a heavy computerized field, no matter
which one, I knew to learn CTR, ALT DEL Right handed :)
As far as "advatages to being left playing right... that's BS.
If that was the case, then why aren't there any right handed ppl playing lefty?
Your advantage is you get the same selection af righty guitars to play with
as a righty as opposed to a lefty playing lefty
As to whether or not you'd play better as a lefty, I doubt it.
If you would, I'd imagine then that would be the way you would play :)
I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed, but when
you're a 22lb sledge, do you really have to be?
jimi played a right handed guitar upside down and restrung for a left handed person
i heard that jimi hendrix was actually lefthanded, but taught himself to play the guitar righthanded, since that's the way they sold them. seemed to work for him ok.

Hendrix actually preferred a righty guitar when he was famous because that was what he learned on. When he was famous they did actually make lefty guitars.

Geez, lefty or righty do what comes natural. It's all about what works for you. When i was a kid i never saw or knew left handed guitars existed.
After learning to play that way for a few years i finally saw a left handed guitar and i didn't even think about trying to relearn everything all over again.
Maybe when i win the lottery i'll buy a "lefty" just to try it out. who knows maybe it will all fall into place easier now that i already know how to play right handed. untill then i'll save up for more "right-handed gear :wink:
