Am I holding the pick wrong!?

So you're amazed as to how Dave's rhythm guitar slaps and strums so "perfectly"...but you can't. Ask all things about Dave and his guitars here.

I know it's slightly off-topic, but I'm a lefty and I do have to play left handed. For anyone who's thinking of trying left handed... don't :)

well playing left handed itself isn't a big deal, but not being able to play anyone else's guitar starts to get annoying. Having to pay more for a guitar isn't so cool either...

yup, im lefty, and i decided to start learning righty because it just seems high maintenance and stupid to play it lefty. like.. i know hendrix/that beatles fellow and others all play lefty.. but..

to me, both hands do just as complicated stuff.. so one hand is gonna be at a disadvantage no matter what you do..

and i finger pick great with my right hand (i play righty even tho im lefty) and my coordnation in my left hand is great..

i dunno, i dont think it matter, right handed people must have trouble with stretches right?
