Re: NGD and I can't even play on it

Yeh, it's a scientific fact that some people are born with their brains backwards in their skulls. They even see lefthanded. And they back into lots of objects when walking forwards. How could they ever even play guitar with such an ailment!?

Re: NGD and I can't even play on it

I'm sure if I could see this guitar I would say that it's a great score and it's beautiful and blah blah blargh.

It is.

My comic genius (which, between you and me, is largely wasted around here) is based on a heady mix of self-deprecation and ironic impersonation. :22:

Probably best if I keep the day job for now.

It is actually very comfortable. (I speak as a Telecaster maniac. I'm used to having no beergut contour on the back of the guitar.) The control knobs are out of the way.

Just at the moment, I am restricted to two-handed tapping.

The Quarrymen, if I recall correctly. Nothing really came of it and he spent much of the 1960s in his room working on the lyrics for Mull Of Kintyre.

You know, I have NEVER seen a picture of Macca playing a Stratocaster. Acoustics of either handedness, a cracking LH Les Paul, Telecasters, US Epiphone Casino, blah, blah.

Hyperlink in post #12, RD. Don't worry. It is not a photograph of my nuts. (This will teach you to read from the beginning.) :D

My particular condition was immortalised in song by The Ramones. "My Brain Is Hanging Upside Down"

Shut up. It's Friday and I'm tired. I need ten beers. Where's the waitress?

Anyway, I'm impressed. Please do keep us up-to-date on what you decide to put into/take out of it. Two lefty Strat projects on the board at the same time might just make this the best website of all time (see my recent thread).

I must be your biggest enemy, then. I'm a left handed person who thinks playing a left handed guitar is stupid... Thus all of my guitars are right handed.

Your move.
 
Re: NGD and I can't even play on it

Change of plan. I am going to teach myself to play this LH Stratocaster upside down WITH MY FEET.

I'm going to join in (sarcasm alert, but with a grain of truth)...to the OP and righties everywhere...why-oh-why must you take our guitars when you have so many other ones to choose from? Put yourself in our position...you walk into guitar center, see 1000 guitars on the wall, and the only ones you can play are the three oddballs tucked in a corner somewhere...then again, the guitar in question is a strat, so I guess I can forgive you (but keep your hands off the left-handed Les Pauls and Telecasters...).
 
Re: NGD and I can't even play on it

Ho, hum. Time to close this thread. Not everyone is tuning in to the English humour.
