I'm 16. Started playing acoustic two years ago, and started playing rock/metal rythym guitar last year. I think I can play some decent music, but I've never played with anyone else. It sounds good to me though...

Re: Easy songs to play on electric guitar (9 replies, posted in Electric)
I'd recommend the entire Green Day album Insomniac. Very easy.
And also:
White Unicorn - Wolfmother
Colossal - Wolfmother
Blitzkreig Bop - The Ramones
All Day and All Of The Night - The Kinks
Them Bones - Alice in Chains
Rosenrot - Rammstein
Those are just a few of the songs I got started on.

Re: DROP C (3 replies, posted in Electric)
I tuned mine to Drop C so I could play Rosenrot by Rammstein... My Strat with stock strings didn't like it too much. Every time I touched the string it got looser. It sounds interesting though, nice and sludgy.
Now Drop D, it handles that just fine...

Most of us leftys have, at an early age, just learned to play right handed. All media caters to the right handed. Leftys think it all through and adjust their brain to accomodate the twisted information. Handedness has nothing to do with final outcome. If one has the burn, he/she will find a method and develop. The gift will force it's way out and the added result will be a natural bent to think outside the box. An asset for creative people.
I'm happy to say I'm one of those lefties who play right handed guitar. To me it makes more sense to play the standard setup as a lefty. I mean, my left has more dexterity than my right, so I play the fretboard with my left. Makes sense kinda... At least for basic rock rythym guitar.
