I'm left handed, I've always played my Real Life guitar right-handed, it was just always easier. But if you're a dedicated Left-handed play, and NEED the lefty flip, it makes it so the notes are switched, like, the green note on the screen will be all the way to the right, rather than the left. So that way you could turn the guitar around completely and still have the normal notes and stuff.

Lefty flip, makes the notes appear mirrored, so the order is OBYRG instead of GRYBO. Its so you can fret with your right hand and strum with the left.


edit: you beat me to it!

Yeah, that's why most people just ignore it and play righty.

If only there was a way to make it so the notes are mirrored and not the colors. So it's still GRYBO, but when you have a green note, it is in the orange spot and colored orange. Left Flip flips everything around and it gets ocnfusing with green on the right. I just want the notes mirrored, not the colors.

As someone who plays lefty, I have no problem with the whammy bar's position - I actually find it more convenient to have it closer, rather than farther away.

I play lefty as well and I wish we had a dedicated left handed guitar option. I hate having the whammy on top. It doesn't necessarily get in my way but it just wrong. I guess it's just from years of playing a real lefty Jackson with a Floyd Rose.

My wife and daughter play lefty,and they have no problems with using the whammy bar.I think it's all about just getting use to where it is for a lefty.

Im left handed as well and I find playing right handed easier. However I've played with the lefty flip on before and I didn't do that badly.

Just imagine you are Jimi Hendrix. I mean, stratocaster, right handed turned upside down, what is better than that?
