The Lefty Union... Revived!

I have a lot of posts in here but an update?

I joined a new band in August of last year, and brought my FELLOW LEFTY with me...

here's a pic from a show we did a few weeks ago

double-trouble :)

wow zombie thread. I never knew who was giving out numbers..maybe someone does.

but since you revived it let me update my band pic from a year ago with 2 leftys.
here's one of the ariel shots of us with the current band a couple weeks ago for one of the songs coming up on the new DVD.

Now 3 leftys in one band because the drummer is very lefty.

I am left-handed, but could never afford lefty instruments growing up, so, just learned to adapt- same as I had to do with writing, notebooks & sht like that. No biggie. It would be too confusing for me to switch to a lefty bass now...hell with it.

Got my special lefty scissors & can opener...that'll do.
 
The only thing I do right handed is play bass.

Outside of that the only use I really get out of my right hand is a counterweight to keep me from walking in big circles around my left hand.
 
Nice Carvins. Which is your main bass? I have an LB20 which was my main for quite a long time, but I've been leaning towards the Gibson Thunderbird I got when Gibson did the run of lefties. Not sure what their status on production is.

Nice Lefty Bird, My go to Bass is the LB70, But The Bromberg is New and I have been spending Many an hours Playing it. It is a true work of art And I managed to get a Clean and Punchy Sound out of It.
