I know they're a few of us on here.

So post anything...Youtube vids, gear, songs etc

I start about 5 and half years ago. Very rarely miss a day picking it up.

I've set myself a challenge. If I practice every day for 3 months I'll buy myself a Fender American Professional Strat.

First song I ever learned properly...

Been playing for about 7 or 8 years now, as a lefty it was a bit annoying trying to find the correct stuff to play, as I just could not force myself to do it right handed. Did try to do a Hendrix and play a right-hander upside down, but that didn't last long as I'm not bloody Jimi Hendrix.

Since I got my left handed Fender Jaguar, I've been on it most nights since. Although recently, I've been messing about with synthesisers and keyboards a lot more, need to get back onto my Jag.
 
Haven't touched my guitars for years. Only just got my amp back, I leant it to a mate to do a gig with and he just sort of gigged around with it. I've got a full studio somewhere in a box in the loft as well which hasn't been used for years either as I lost my cubase key <doh>

My time is spent on more profitable pursuits nowadays.
 
I have a 12 string Yamaha that I can't master.

I have a semi accoustic Takamine that I can't put down.

I also have a semi accoustic ukelele thats been out of it's case once. Magnificent peice of craftsmanship but I haven't got a clue what to do with it.
 
I have an Epiphone 6 string electric, a 12 string acoustic and a 6 string acoustic, I also have a very old Hofner in the Hank Williams style. I still play them all (badly) except the Hofner that needs some restoration, and whilst my fingers are still able too. I sometimes even write my own stuff, for personal consumption of course but I have a programme on my computer that allows me to add my own backing tracks. Just wished that I had learned the piano as well.

Twelve strings have a bit of a reputation for going out of tune rather easily, I have an electronic gadget that makes tuning my guitars a breeze.
 
I have a 6 string acoustic, 12 string acoustic, 2 out of rhythm hands & 10 out of sync digits.

They’re now collecting dust in the loft.



@Quill - I’m sure the 12 string is a left handed one. If it’s any use to you I’ll dig it out & get it to you.
