The famous left handed guitarist

-
The only thing I do as a lefty is shoot pool, everything else is right handed, used to annoy the hell out of the veterans at the legion where I played snooker, no idea why but they would always be on my *** to "shoot properly". Can't hit the broad side of barn right handed with a pool cue.
 
Dick Dale said he learned to play a flipped righty as a lefty. I saw a vid but it was a lefty so I dont know if he changed his style or what.

Probably left handed and forced to write right handed in grade school and the reason he signs autographs with his right...

That's what my mom would say about her mother. She had terrible handwriting. Nuns can be mean... I know.

Your Mom was a Nun!
Now that's a first for me.

I played catcher for my cousin who was a pitcher for an A Level Team, I had never played catcher before for a semi-pro. I just happened to go by his house one day and he needed to practice his pitching..........It was scary!! After just a few really hot curve balls I had to quit. I have no idea how you could catch having only one eye because it was almost impossible to catch for my cousin with two good eyes!! His knuckle ball almost killed me.

"I just did it". I wanted to play and fit in so bad, that it never occurred to me to be scared. It probably should have. lol

We all went to Catholic schools.
I also went to a Catholic grade school.
I remember when I was in 5th or maybe 6th grade the neighboring Catholic school had to whisk away 2 of their Nuns in the middle of the school year cause they were knocked up.
Funny, I always wanted to go to that school after that.
 
Yes Restrung

Her is one of Jimi's tricks of fretting the base string with his long thumb. That is all Hendrix.

Base string on top, can tell by how thick it is.
 
I write and throw both handed, I can do calligraphy right hand. Normally write left handed. Shoot left or right. I can write both hands at the same time. I wipe my butt right handed.
 
hard core lefty here. first grade teacher tried to convert me, but a visit from dad, (a lefty) changed all that. when i play guitar, or any other stringed instrument, i'm a righty. just the oposite of paul mc cartney
