Im a lefty who else?

Current mood: horny

Being lefty has its disadvantages 
you know, fewer selection, raised prices, etc.
but personally i love it
i want to discuss guitars and playing techniques
with other left handed people cause only they can think like me
to some extent
feel free to rip on the companys that think that left handed players dont make up a reasonable fraction of the buying market and whatever else

Your absolutely right, being left handed, pretty much is like segregation. I split my first guitar in half, so I only have my acoustic Fender. I'm saving up for an Ibanez RG370DXL with a floating temelo and shark tooth inlays, $400.

fuck i know, its like hey, we'll make your instruments. but heres the catch leftys, you dont get to have all the models lefty, and the ones we do make will not be as good, your color choice will be few if any, theres none in stock, you got to order it off the internet, aaaaaand its gonna cost about 200-450% more. but hey, you should be grateful to us big corporations, at least we have one or two but thats life and i wouldnt be righty if i had the choice im saving up to have a custom axe built, so that i get exactly what i want

It is pretty ridiculous to charge so much more for lefty guitars. Even though all the electronics, tuners and such are the same it costs that much to flip it all around?

If you think about it, rightys should play left haded guitars and the other way around unless you finger pick a lot. Your fretting hand does all the work. Do you do what Hendrex did or Cobain did and flip the guitar over and string backwards?
