Would Jimi Hendrix have been the Hendrix that we know today...?

Question

had he pursued right-handed guitar as opposed to left-handed?

Obviously theres no definite answer for this, this is an open ended question.

obviously some ppl dont understand my question.
im saying if he pursued the conventional way of playing guitar (right handed) would he have had the same degree of achievement as he has today

Answer 1

Call me dumb but, wh-wh-WHAT!!!!?????????????

Answer 2

If he'd have learned to play the guitar conventionally, Hendrix would also have sprouted bloody, lofty angel wings, removed his mandible with his own hands, sundered his mind from his body, and then, sing the song that ends the entire world.

This is the real answer. I checked with a time machine.

Answer 3

I guess I dont understand, because to me its like asking a right-handed person to write a letter with his left hand and do the job as well as he does his right hand. You know? If you are left handed how does that affect your playing guitar any differently than being a right hander? You're right, I don't get it.

Answer 4

Why would that have made a difference?? Jimi would have been great no matter what! Besides, he did play a right-handed guitar.. only it was upside down.. haha!

Answer 5

No because he wouldve had to stop using crank so he wouldve ended up something like bruce springsteen crossed with prince since he did choose his way

Answer 6

I don't think it would have mattered which hand he pursued... I think the creativity would have come out of him either way.

Answer 7

There wouldn't even be words to describe how great Jimi would be.

Answer 8

If he did, they would've never named that college after him.

Answer 9

no i don't thin so. he wouldn't have been as unique.
