blimey Chris, lots to think about there!
Yep, Andy's not bad I have to agree. Maybe being *slightly* left handed opens up an interesting advantage.
i.e. If you favour the left  but not totally a Lefty, it seems to be logical that you can be quite original, co-ordinated and strong with basses, as opposed to flapping your fingers round a bit, that a strong Righty might do.
( I think I might have just offended a *whole* lot of people here......  >:E )
But as said, a strong lefty is presumably an upside down Righty.....errr if you see what I mean! so in the extreme could have wonderful basses and rubbish right hand melody. I can see that after my McCann efforts.
Phew getting a bit intense here  :Ph

Mike: I suppose my thoughts fro a left handed box was along the lines of a left handed guitar - built properly for a left handed person not one just turned the other way up, left handed keyboard, lower notes under the chin etc. so a mirror of a normal box, as opposed to a normal one turned upside down.
My friend let me twiddle on a G/D Oakwood the other week. He bought it as a properly made left handed box, and got them to change it back to a normal right handed one for him.

I think I'm starting to get most of the notes in roughly the right order...... sometimes!
