What made you decide to pick a lefty guitar rather than learning righty?
My first guitar was a right handed 3/4 size nylon string and I naturally picked up the guitar the lefty way. As my dad is a guitar player (right handed) he was able to change the strings over for me and never suggested I learnt to play it right handed, even though the guitar was setup this way. Learning to play right handed never really crossed my mind as even at the very beginning, it felt like I had more control with my right hand on the fretboard as opposed to the other way around.
A lot of our readers are fiercely proud of being left handed, are you the same?
Yeah, I don’t really think it’s a bad thing. Especially when there is and have been many great musicians who are left handed such as Hendrix and Beethoven. It is thought that left handed people are more creative too when it comes to the arts so it’s definitely not something you should feel ashamed of in this day and age and I can definitely say I don’t! more
