I have a job at a festival in about two hours. I cut the strings off my E9 neck so I could put fresh ones on, but the only set I have are left hand Jagwires. I don't have much time, is there a way I can use these? Thanks.

Hi Howard
Nice one, LOL, considering the message was posted so early you must be on stage at 10 am.
Solution to your problem !!! yeah
String as normal and sit the other side of the guitar.
Have a nice day.

Play the guitar upside down,hold it with your neck,and push the pedals with your chin,I always do it,very easy! |

Howard. You need to return those back here right away! Those were experimental prototypes and must have gotten sent out by mistake. We'll send you an ambridextrious set so you wan't have that problem next time. [This message was edited by Danny Hullihen on 01 April 2006 at 08:20 AM.] |

The string is actually the same as right hand except the ball is on the wrong end. There is plenty of extra length to cut the ball off and twist in on the other end. Probably a 5 minute job per string if you have a sharp pair of side cutters and a decent pair of right handed warplars.

Just hold your bar with your right hand and pick with your left, You'll get used to your arms crossed. I think this technique is called cross picking. |
