So recently I've been thinking to pick up the guitar just enough to help explain to a guitarist what sound I want, and even to help me write some music. As I thought deeply about this (usually upon the toilet where I do my best contemplation) it raised a question.
While learning a bit of guitar, do you guys think it would benefit my drumming to play the guitar left handed? I know my left hand is quite a bit behind my right in terms of overall control, and I thought that maybe learning to strum with my left may help me get used to more unique notes behind the kit.
Now I know that I have heard that it can help quite a bit in a drummers technique to begin doing every day things with his left hand (assuming his right is dominant) And this has been said to help balance out the hands and help the left catch up with the right, so do you guys / gals think this is also true in playing a lefty guitar?
Any input?
Also, thought I shoul add that I am aware that I can improve my left hand by just working with it more during practices, but the guitar question raised some true curiosity in me
Thanks guys!
