At least there are left-handed guitars hanging in stores for sale.
I saw my first left-handed Stratocasters in 1977, in Ottawa, Canadas' capital city.
Everything left-handed back then cost at least twice as much, if you were willing to order and wait,
and that meant taking whatever they sent you.
As much as I like to type about myself and my playing, me being in bands, I have to admit,
if there's one thing half the guitarists came up to talk about, it was me playing left-handed, all the way.
Of course, that was me ordering left-handed parts and building my own guitar.
Deciding (with Mr. George Bensons' help) to keep the bass strings on the bottom, a right-handed guitar upside-down,
meant my friends could play it and I could play right-handed guitars upside-down, a nice jamming thing.
But so many lefties tell me they had to stop because of tendonitis, or quit because they couldn't get as fast.
I can understand Mr. Mark Wein saying it's all new motor skills whether it's left or right, and scientifically, that's right,
but, music comes from your heart and mind, and you want to develop that co-ordination too,
what your wrong hand can't do, pulling all of your perceptions and perspectives on the world around you,
all those bazillions of previous synaptic firings that determined your balance and reach out into this right-handed world.
And before you expect me to have a definite lefty answer, let me ask you, are pianos left or right-handed?
