[QUOTE="MacFromOK, post: 3444062, member: 40864"] I'm very right-handed as well. I've told folks for years that my left hand is just a helper for my right. :D Like everything else, it takes practice for chord formations to become second-nature. You can practice that while doing something mindless (lol, like watching TV) without even making a sound. Learning bar chords (where you use the same formations for playing in different keys by moving the positions up and down the fret board) is pretty much necessary IMO if you want to learn pickin' (i.e. lead guitar). It's a blast to play along with your favorite songs, though they're often not recorded to the same pitch. I used to make cassettes with songs I liked that were, even if I had to tune the guitar up/down a bit to match 'em. The strings are probably rusted off my old SG and Yammer-hammer flat-top. <sigh> :drunk2: [/QUOTE]
