    Also for Q7 after some searches on the net, Noel Gallacher is apparently left handed but plays guitar right handed while Jimi Hendrix was right handed but played guitar left handed! very confusing!

    Am gonna check with my rock oracle (aka eldest son!) re Jimi Hendrix but I thought he was left-handed but played right-handed guitars with his left hand so it was upside down itms - back in a mo :)

    these quotes are from his wiki page here

    Hendrix used right-handed guitars, turned upside down for left-hand playing, and restrung so that the heavier strings were in their standard position at the top of the neck.

    His flashy style and left-handed playing of a right-handed guitar already made him a standout.

    the oracle has emerged from the bathroom to say that you are definitely right JoeCool - Jimi Hendrix was right-handed but played a right-handed guitar upside down in a left-handed fashion (he researched his guitar playing for an essay and because my son is a left-handed guitarist he was really interested) sorry for any confusion I have caused - keeps things interesting :o
