keep working on it your transitions are a bit choppy and need to be smoothed out. If you watch the Ventures Youtube video "Stars On Guitars" you will notice how smooth they transition their medleys! Maybe you coudl make a video transitioning the same songs and use that as reference.
dude i know your playing lefty on a standard right hand guitar, but did u leave the strings the same so that your low E string is on the bottom now and high e string on the top? crazy dude. thats sick. sick playing too
That was cool! Is it hard to do barre chords and normal chords with the guitar "upside down" like that? Or do you just do it for novelty? I do not understand. Cool song though.
I suspect because it looks cool. It worked for Hendrix, and also the Mosrite Ventures model was based on an upside down fender style guitar. It looks way cool like a reverse Gibson firebird. He is left handed and the guitar looks great like that. Way cool :)
Thanks man. That has literally been driving me crazy for years. It gets played on one of my local radio stations in the background and I couldn't find anyone who knew the name of the song.

cause 10% of the worlds population is left-handed smart ass. And maybe he wasn't able to buy a left one of this particular model.

actually without sounding like and ass im guessin 25% + of the world population is left handed >,>

No. Way less. Think about how many of the people you know are left handed. Nowhere near a quarter.

I play this way because my brother has a lot of (normal) guitars,
so why would I limit myself to just one?...it does not limit my playing in any way and even makes bends etc more easy...
And also: it does look cool!

Is your pickups on your venture jazzmaster Antiquity or SJM-1N/1B.
Would like to know as soon as possible, cause i am going to buy some of them. But want that sound that is in your guitar, so please answer.
Thanks.
