Title: Handedness (left or right?)
Post by: 64Guitars on May 08, 2015, 03:20:46 PM
Do you play guitar right-handed or left-handed? I doubt very much if anyone here is ambidextrous (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ambidexterity) or mixed-handed (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-dominance) when it comes to playing guitar but I've included those options to complete the four types of handedness (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Handedness).

Fenderbender (https://songcrafters.org/forum/index.php?topic=2782.msg284413#msg284413) and other inquiring minds want to know.

I'm a lefthanded guitarist. I write on lefthand, too, but play tennis and throw a ball on right hand. I use hammer on my left hand, but I use axe on right hand!

 ;D ;D
I, like Redler and the silent minority am a lefty
I write left handed-used to kick football(badly ;D)left footed,
drive (badly -gave it up ::) ::)on the left hand side of the road.
I use a knife & fork right handed - ;D ;D ;D
In junior school I was the only lefty in class and the odd time I'd get a wrap on the knuckles for writing left handed
(that was in the old B&W days-when school teachers could get away with that kind of carry on)
ohh yeah I live on the left hand side of our street ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
