    The coolest thing is, you had her converted for fun. Not because you're left handed!

    I want a decent guitar. I sold my Gibson a few years back. I cried then too.

    NOOOO. I was being nice! I didn't want to point out your infirmity in being left- handed! I was going to ask you if it was wierd playing on right-handed guitars?
    I'm right-handed but spent ages trying to play my guitar the other way round, just so I could see what it felt like to be lefthanded (Doh!).

    And I'm not Ugly, Trannie-kisser.

    It is hard playing right-handed guitars, yes. I turn them upside down and play 'em that way. Cannot do power chords like that but most open chords are fine, just need to remember the different fingering

    Different fingerings always take a while to get used to.

    You could always try re-stringing the righthanders the other way.

    That's what I did with my strat, although it's not that easy, I had to get the bridge changed round or something or other. It's also awkward sometimes when I'm playing and my arm hits the pick-up switch or volume knob

    Doh! Imagining nasty watch-catching incidences. Proper left-handers are well pricey. You lot are discriminated against.

    I'm off to get some beauty sleep anyhow. Hope its not too cold tonight.

    I wouldn't have said so, yes they're a bit more than the right-handed version, but the real problem is that you can't get any rare or really good guitars in left handed versions
