ok as far as being left handed some of the greatest guitar players were lefty's such as hendrix and kurt cobain!. Secondly most guitarists cant read music they learn to play by learning to read chords!. Unless you want to be a concert guitarist all you really need is to learn chord charts!. That is how i learned to play!. You really do not have to waste your time and parents money on lessons either when you can google lessons online for free or go on youtube and look up lessons!. So go to a music store and ask for some left handed guitars get online and search for chord charts and lessons!.

It's easy to get a left-handed guitar!. Or- as Jimi Hendrix did - use a right-handed guitar, and just reverse the strings!. But a left-handed guitar is what you're looking for!. That's really all you need!.!.!.well, aside from some lessons or books or something!. Even my own guitar teacher is left-handed!

If you can't take lessons (and if you can read music) start with some E-Z sheet music and books - and find a beginner book that will teach you all the chords!.

Mostly, just sit around and play with it!. That's the best teacher!. Hear a song you like!? try to imitate it! It can be frustrating at first!.!.!.but hang in there and keep practicing!. It can take a while, but you can do it!

Good luck!Www@QuestionHome@Com
