  1. Nope - you are  a right handed player and can play a standard guitar.


  2. No. I am a guitar player myself, am right-handed and I strum with my right hand and fret with the left, but it doesn't make me left-handed. The right hand still carries the weightier task of producing music from the guitar because it is still the one which determines the volume of the sound, the tempo and dynamics, and the correct time signature. Strumming with the right hand and doing frets with the left only means that there is effective and proper coordination between the right and left hemispheres of the brain, and does not make one left-handed. Left-handed guitarists use the left-handed guitar.

  3. No. But if you always do that you can. It can be your mannerisms. I hope I can help you! :-)

  4. No ...thats makes you right -handed guitar player because you strum with the right hand.

    IF you strummed with your left hand...than you'd be a left-handed guitar player.  Hope this helps...

  5. No. A standard right-hand guitar is as you described it. A left-handed guitar would be the opposite. Note that you can't just convert a right-handed guitar to left just by reversing the strings. This will change the balance of tension on the instrument itself and potentially damage it. You can buy a dedicated left-hand guitar. Some famous rockers are/were left-handed.

  6. No Erin, you are right handed. I am left-handed and decided to play the correct way.

  7. no it means you are a right handed play..........now if you strum with your left and fret with your right then that would make you a lefty..........a standered guitar(for rightys) means that you strum right and fret left........but some leftys use a standered guitar(like me) becuase it was just as easy for me to stum with my right as it would be to strum with my left...

  8. Noo.. you're a right handed player... hey so em i! =] but i'm weird tho.. cause i'm a right handed when it comes to guitar and writing.. but in volleyball i serve with my left.. and in soccer i kick with my left foot.. haha.. i dunno.. weirdness.. =]
