I took guitar lessons for a couple years. Yes my teacher made adaptations. I played a right handed guitar because it was easier to work the frets with my left hand and I wore a finger pick on my right thumb to strum the strings. #CPChatNow - ThreadSky

Mm I didn't know there were handed guitars.. #cpchatnow

Yes there are. Right handed people usually do the fret work with their left hand and strum right handed. Most lefties fret with their right hand and strum with their left. You can’t just flip the guitar over for lefty or righty. #CPChatNow

I wrote a poem about my guitar lessons last month for #NaPoWriMo #CPChatNow

Sounds like your dad's guitar is on it's way to becoming a family heirloom! #CPChatNow

It is almost 80 years old. My dad got it when he was 5 years old and he is 84 now. So yes, it is definitely an heirloom. #CPChatNow
