Left Handed
Myths About Left Handed Guitar And Left Handed Guitarists SHOT DOWN IN FLAMES
There are various very FALSE "ideas" floating about in our society on the subject of learning to play guitar that have to do with being left or right handed. These ideas stem from ignorant right handed guitarists, lazy guitar teachers, or money-motivated sales staff at musical instrument shops who are on kickbacks from some particular guitar brand, and sometimes even from bitter and twisted left-handed guitarists themselves who somehow feel "cursed." However the latter only comes about because of the former.
The unfortunate consequence of these false data is that they influence parents and children in their choices of playing or learning guitar.
Let's get one thing very straight. These common misconceptions I am about to present you herein ARE myths.
A myth ceases to be a myth once it has been revealed to be otherwise. It is dispelled easily by providing the Truth.
So, lefty guitarists and right handed guitarists can equally learn something here. You may be very surprised to know some new things here or have some misconceptions dispelled. I hope so!
MYTH ONE. "A guitar is like a piano. There is only one way to play it."
This is one of the biggest, outmoded, ignorant, and totally incorrect statements there is on this subject. Yes, a piano is played one way. But even then, depending on whether you play Classical or modern piano, what you do with your right and left hands are quite different. So in a way, a piano is not played one way either! And definitely no - a guitar is not played one way.
In fact, the way people play guitars in Rock and Pop music today, t is actually of greater benefit that a right handed person actually play guitar left handed - with his or her dominant hand on the fret board, instead of the other way round which is the traditional way. For modern music, it is not about being just a "strummer" like it was 60 years ago. Guitar playing has EVOLVED. Isn't it surprising that some of the world's best Rock guitarists are left-handers playing guitar right-handed - the reverse scenario!
MYTH TWO. "It is harder to learn guitar left-handed in a world dominated by right-handed teachers and right handed instruction books."
This is a doozer. In fact learning guitar left handed is EASIER from a right-handed teacher than a left-handed teacher because everything the teacher shows you is a MIRROR IMAGE of what you are doing and easier to follow! Right handed guitarists learning from a right handed teacher have to do a mental switcheroo to get what they are doing right! That is an extra step a left-handed learner does not have to take! And books? There are books for left-handed instruction. They exist and they are not hard to get. There aren't as many but that is a good thing. Less possibilities of confusion. Right handed guitar instruction materials are so abundant that there is an OVERSATURATION of material which frankly makes anyone giddy when trying to make sense of it all.
MYTH THREE. "You can't get many left-handed guitars." Or "It's hard to find a left handed guitar."
This WAS true until recently. In 2006 an Australian company called Gaskell Guitars came to be. Gaskell Guitars makes left handed guitars and basses EXCLUSIVELY, and is the only company in the world that does.
Gaskell has grown in the last few years to be the number one brand in the world for left handed guitars. Several major guitar brands have stopped making lefthanded guitars: Gibson, Paul Reed Smith, Rickenbacker. They stopped due to "lack of demand." That is another myth.
MYTH FOUR. "There is not much demand for left handed guitars"
This is the biggest myth of the lot. This idea is definitely a commercially motivated right handed guitar manufacturer's point of view. Although there are much less left handed guitarists in the world there are still many. Lefty guitarists do exist - and they are all over the world - young and old. This is a fact that right handed guitar companies will never be aware of because they operate on TURNOVER and their turnover consists of right handed guitars - for the majority. Understandable, but not true!
If you are a left-handed guitarist reading this realize this: there are plenty of people like you in the world - PLENTY!
You do not need to feel bad about being a left handed guitarist.
And parents take note; let your son or daughter play the way they feel is comfortable for them. Do not change that because some lazy teacher or kick-back motivated shop salesman tries to tell you otherwise. There is a lot of garbage still thrown around on this subject. Realize they are self-serving myths and don't fall prey to that!

What percentage of the population is Left Handed?
I'm strongly left-handed so I'm curious...I always hear different figures ranging anywhere from 7% to 30%. What is the most accurate percentage? Just from observation, in some of my classes at my university I've noticed I'm the only one and in others there are other students who are left-handed.
ooooh i'm left handed too! i think it's like 10% or something
