Jimi Hendrix Fender New Model For 2015

[wokkaboy]

could still do a right hand version I spose - lefty axe upside down.
I couldn't play it that way, fingers need to be Hendrix sized to get to the upper frets, unless you put a nice scoop in the upper cutaway

Almost bought a lefty Squire Strat a while back as it was going cheap to do exactly this but ended up buying a right hand Yammy Pacifica instead as you just end up with controls and tremolo in all the wrong places. Not so sure the slight difference in tone or sound is worth the grief just to get that look, and if you can't play like Hendrix you would just be labelled the wannabe that could never be.

The lefty who does my head in is Doyle Bramhall II, he plays left handed but strung & tuned as a righty.

As noted by DB this is a poor attempt to cash in, money stays in pocket

[andrewdosborne]

Lol, he must be a lefty like me - who does everything right handed and/or back-to-front!

[wokkaboy]

@ DK I have a mate who plays righty with it strung for a lefty so all the chords are fingered very differently
@ Ponch we are alike, I'm a lefty but play axe, use scissors and PC mouse righty. What things do you do Ponch back to front ? It must mean we use both sides of the brain haha

[andrewdosborne]

For example, I use right handed scissors left handed upside down. I think my brain has to use both sides just to figure it out!

haha classic Ponch that's a strange technique but as long as it works.
Since your Kwaka is from the US hope they didn't swap the throttle to the left hand grip ?

Another lefty who also uses a mouse, cricket bat (and similar sporting equipment) and plays axe right handed too...

[wokkaboy]

so you play a mosrite (cricket bat) right handed Pest haah

how about tennis/squash ? I play left handed

[stan]

i do everything leftie

IMO if the big F want to build an historically correct Hendrix reissue, then simply trot out a right handed strat, it's what he mainly used.

this is marketing guff, not interested
