I just bought my lefty strat last week! I am so happy! I tried to learn how to play on a righty guitar for years... and didn't get too far. I am left handed, after all! I am so excited about this! My guitar is so comfortable to play! My bf plays guitar. He can show me what to practice... and it's like looking in a mirror... very cool! I can't wait to buy my next lefty guitar!

welcome to the forum,

I am a proud lefty, I didn't try to learn righty as it did not feel natural, I hated upside down guitars, then along came Paul McCartney, which made me even more proud to be a lefty!

For me the only frustration is when looking for a new guitar/bass you have take what you can find even if the only colour is black or sunburst.

Updating pickups etc. is also a pain for the most part, other then that being alefty is fine.

P.S. In the 60's I actually got into a couple of bands because I was a lefty as it looked on stage. :lol:

Welcome to the forum!! I'm right-handed, but always wondered how it would be for someone like me to try and teach a lefty to play. Thinking I would have to reverse everything I'm doing??

Welcome to the forum,I play a lefty Strat too but strung right handed for the Hendrix vibe-it's a must have for every Hendrix freak.

I'm left handed, but I've always played right handed.
