Ah.

Anyone ever tried going against the grain? I tried a few lefty models when i was just starting out, but I felt like a retarded five year old monkey on methadone trying to paint in the dark.

I always "air-guitar" lefty, one day I will buy a lefty and try to learn that way. It feels more natural for me like that. I am odd, I am zod.

When I first started playing I tried right handed, but that didn't work out, then I used right handed guitars (not many left handed guitars around back then) and just flipped them over and learned upside down. Now days I only buy Left Handed guitars set up for a Left Handed player.

I'm ambidextrous and play righty. I write and play guitar righty, but I play baseball and golf left handed.

Righty playing righty. I once strung up a guitar for a kid who was left handed and played the thing for a while, I was surprised how well I took to it.
