Good to hear that that didn't sideline your guitar playing too much. If you love guitar as much as I do I'm sure you'll be ambidextrious in no time.

I originally started when I was 10, played until I was 25, then had an accident on my left hand which put an end to that.

Now I'm 36, and have started to play left handed since November.

It's pretty hard (I used to able to play some Vai & Satriani stuff which annoys me no end at the moment), but I think my practise regime is much more regimented now, as I know what skills I need to build, and also how to build them. I think I may end being better left handed - with a lot of perseverance.

I think the main issue is the amount of practise and playing you put in; as well as the 'kind' of practising you are doing.

Playing for 10 mins every other day for 25 years is probably not as good as playing for 2 to 3 hours a day for 5 years.

What happened to your hand? If you don't want to share I don't mind.
