I'm just wondering if there's any particular corelation between being a lefty and using pedals with your left, and such. is anyone ambidextrous (so to speak)?
EDIT: Because I'm stupid, i accidentally put right handed left foot twice. Use the second RHLF to mean Right Handed Right Foot
Sorry for the confusion...

|  | Registered User | | Join Date: Feb 2006 Location: northern illinois | | | i've noticed if i'm just switching something on i'll use my left foot, but i tend to use my right for expression pedals. i think that's more to do with my pedal layout than anything |

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Sep 2005 Location: Chicago, IL | | | I'm right handed and I usually use my right foot, but certain sounds require me to dance around with both feet. For example, I use a momentary footswitch to activate the overdrive on my amp head, so if I wanna use that OD and switch on another effect in the middle I'll need to use my left foot. For some reason I also like using my left foot to adjust the volume pedal sometimes.

Because my bass hangs in the way of me moving my right leg forward too much, basically.

I need to find/invent a pedalboard that allows me to turn things on with a really easy pushbutton system (pedals are HARD to push when they're on a stand!).
