Cosmo Valdemar Posted July 20, 2023 Share Posted July 20, 2023 I've seen a couple of Paul McCartney impersonators play bass left-handed then switch to a right-handed guitar for Blackbird 😄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Browning Posted July 20, 2023 Share Posted July 20, 2023 I often change to cack-handed during a gig. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulWarning Posted July 20, 2023 Share Posted July 20, 2023 I have enough trouble playing only left handed 🙂, John Otway plays both left and right handed guitar https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=358951982112502 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No video edit, you can see the switch at 2:34 There are other videos of Karl playing bass with Nina dotted around youtube, but I don't know if he does the switch in those 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muzz Posted July 21, 2023 Share Posted July 21, 2023 Not during a gig, but there's a very talented chap comes to the jam night who plays guitar (and bass) left handed, but if no-one's brought a LH bass, he just takes mine and flips it over. Gives me a mild panic attack watching him... 😐 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamtheelvy Posted July 21, 2023 Share Posted July 21, 2023 I couldn’t possibly play anything competently left-handed, but have on rare occasion switched to LH when a hint is needed that a song we are playing may be a bit dull… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
police squad Posted July 22, 2023 Share Posted July 22, 2023 It's something I was going to learn do to. To see if I could play differently but in the end I couldn't really be bothered with it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To see if I could play differently but in the end I couldn't really be bothered with it I was going to try and learn right handed, I found an encore bass left out by some bins which wasn't/isn't to bad action wise, but after a couple of attempts I decided it was just to much trouble and I can do some things right handed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the end it seemed like too much effort. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
