Sometimes We Play Left-Handed

Sometimes We Play Left-Handed

Paul McCartney of the Beatles fame was a left-

handed bass player when the rest of the world played the electric bass as a right-handed player.  He did opposite from the rest of the world.  And his career turned out pretty good.

Music teachers are trained to teach us proper technique, proper stance.  However, sometimes a student needs to adapt, adjust to their own proclivities. 

I should have tried, at least a few times, setting my drums up to accommodate my left-handedness.  It was unheard of in those days, so I didn’t. 

See my point.  It matters not whether you are a bass player, a carpenter, a painter, a writer, a builder of homes.  You adapt your teaching to what works best for you. 

Learn the basics, by all means, and then adapt.
