Cool licks............and spicy too!..............Cheers HP!

Hi Guys, Just wondering if there is a place here for an old left handed guitar player like me. Your comments would be strongly appreciated. Thank you very much. Looking forward to receiving your reply. Best wishes from The Netherlands, Joe Davis Jr.

Thank you for your comments. In the earlier days there was no room for left handed guitars. Lefties were obliged to turn the strings of their guitars since left handed guitars were not produced. Only 10% of the players were/are left handed guitar players. Nowadays we can buy left handed guitars ( and chord -, scales books ) but not all guitar models are available but 10% higher in price.

Hey Joe, I would also be interested how many have a regular left hand guitar and how many just turned there guitar around like Jimi Hendrix did.

Here I show you a bad ass funk rock guitar riff with a drop D tuning. Here you can download the files associated to this tutorial :

Here I show you 3 pro blues guitar double stop licks which work along with the chord progression G7 / C7. The licks contain a lot of let-ring effects and follow the chords of this progression. This makes them sound really great and they can give the spice for your sophisticated blues guitar solo. Please pay close attention to all my instructions to get the maximum benefit out of this tutorial.

I have a new student who is a lefty but started with guitar as a right handed guitar player. That was quite a situaiton when we found out - are there any comments or experiences which can be shared on this topic ? BTW - I totally forgot about this topic here

My 1st guitar was a right handed acoustic, which I steung upside down. Since then every guitar I bought has been a lefty. I have considered getting a right handed Stratacastor and plating it upside down. My only complaint with my lefty Strat us that the switch and knob gets in the way of my strumming hand.. maybe it would be better with the controls on top?

Hey Dave - yes I noticed during the recording of this video that the volume of the voice was a bit low. I will make the correction from the next video on.

Another good one - thanks. Is it possible to change the volume balance between your voice mic and the guitar? I notice on this and some of your other videos it's hard to hear your voice, but the music is loud.

Here^s my modern tribute to Jimi Hendrix. Improvised to a beat I am currently working on.
