Gatemouth never considered himself a blues player. if you notice, he's playing a jazzy style of guitar. I met him back in the late 70s/very early 80s.

And another version of the same song:
Some of his most soulful vocals--and fantastic feel & phrasing on the guitar playing.

Many lefties can still play well no matter whether the guitar is strung lefty or righty Even though they have their preference My friend strings his guitars lefty But has no problem playing my guitars

I know it’s a walk in the park for a lot of lefty’s but if I restrung my guitar lefty I think it would take years if ever to retrain. I’ve never seen or heard of a right handed player play his guitar strung left handed or reverse if you will. I’ve only seen it with left handed players and those are few and far between. I think lefty’s can access some part of their brain righty’s can’t. Of course that’s just a complete guess but it blows my mind folks can play with the guitar strung backwards. Have you ever seen a righty that could do it? Is your friend a righty?

Have you ever seen a righty that could do it? Is your friend a righty? Unless it's musical instruments or hockey he is right handed. His left hand is dominant when he plays keyboards or drums. But he golfs right handed, uses power tools right handed, etc. I play hockey left handed as well (Or at least when I did play)

I’ve tried shooting right in hockey and I felt spastic. My BIL/golf buddy is right handed in everything except golf. He shoots right in hockey, plays guitar right handed but plays golf left. One day on the golf course, we were way ahead of the group behind us, so we played one hole using the others clubs. Well, we looked like like absolute idiots with no hand-eye coordination. 😂

well, since this thread has gone so far from it's original post, we might as well turn it into a "Blues" thread. here's a good one to listen to.
