Hey Tony, I can't offer any real insight on this, as I never had to deal with such a nasty condition ever. What I can say is, follow the path offering the best results. Be organized and make a habit out of observing yourself when you play. If you see that in time the results are obtain faster in one direction and with potential to improve and slower in the other, then go for what's best. There is no right or wrong in this Jimi Hendrix was also a leftie, right?

For a bit of inspiration on this, throw an eye in here - > The list of 'lefties' OMG. I just read that list and it says Dave Kilminster used to play left handed until an injury and then he swapped to right. And he's an incredible guitarist, I would never have believed that ! There you go, goes to show you what can be done If you wondered who Dave is, he used to be a columnist for Guitarist magazine but he plays for loads of different people now. His columns used to be a monthly highlight for me and where I picked up a lot of my early tips and tricks ! |

That's cool, Tony, I think that's a good decision. I'm sure you'll keep us updated on your progress and who knows, maybe we'll see some video action of your playing sometime ?

If not, here they are https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/instructor/Juan-Cortes/ I don't know what I would grade it as it's not a performance of another solo (or is it ?), it's an improvised solo. It would be interesting to hear how you're getting on with string bending and things like that too |
