Hello Jezz,
Thanks for another great magazine. Regarding left handed guitarists. I am one! and play right handed. I have tried it the other way around and find no advantage in playing it left handed. In fact there are disadvantages such as not not being able to try other instruments! To any left hander wrestling with the choice i would advise always to use a normally strung right hand instrument. Being a left hander on a right hand instrument is no bar to good progress. Only lack of time to practice or a lack of desire to succeed or both will get in the way. If you are left handed and playing it left handed stay as you are. If your just starting out go for right handed. The same debate rages on with the advantage or disadvantage of learning earlier or later in life! Some start aged seven and are on the wolrd stage by fifteen. Just because no one has started at fifty and hit the world stage at sixty five doesnt mean it cant be done. It simply hasnt been done yet! I hope he or she is a left hander!
