If you are a guitar music lover who is a part of the 10% of the world s lefty population, this article is  definitely for you. It was in the early 1970 s that guitar manufacturing  was started in an industrial scale. With the growing population of guitar players, the question of left handed guitars arose.  several try playing right handed guitars using their left hand, mostly because they do not have access to  well-made left handed guitars. But as you can figure out (or try out yourself) playing a  regular guitar  as a  lefty, is dull. You tend to mix up the notes and end up producing disorganized music  rather than the good tunes that guitars are so popular for, unless you practice genuinely hard.

The choices available for left handed guitarists are indeed limited, whether it is acoustic or electric. If you are fortunate, you can find a couple of left handed guitars tucked away  in music stores. You cannot blame salesman for this, because in a average community, a customer  looking for a left handed guitar will turn up only once in a blue moon.

several try reversing the strings of right handed guitars, but that  affects the tone of the music directly. There are indeed two  alternatives, one is to watch out for one of those left handed guitars or else, order a left  handed version of a right-handed guitar. The second is more practical of course, but it has its share of pitfalls. Even  two right handed guitars of the same model can differ slightly. In addition, tailor made left handed guitars may not have the same sound  quality as an original one.

An particularly made left handed guitar can price up to $4000, and hence, the risk  attached to it is great. You sure can t cancel an order after a manufacturer  makes a special guitar for you.

The next question that pops up in your mind is where to get left handed guitars. The list of companies indicated below are well-renowned  manufacturers and sellers of great left handed guitars.
-    Instrument Pro International
-    Woodwind and Brasswind International
-    Musician s Friend USA
-    ZZounds International

Finding a teacher to assist you with left handed guitar playing is nearly as difficult as it  is to find an instrument. But once you have the instrument, you can learn the fundamentals alone either referring  to a well-written book or via the internet. After all, Paul  McCartney, Jimi Hendrix, Kurt Cobain and Tony Lommi went through all that trouble and managed to outshine even right handed guitar players.
