  2. What are the choices for a Left Handed Banjo Player? • Left handed banjo • Right-handed upside down banjo

  3. Right-Handed Upside Down Banjo: The right-handed banjo upside down offers many advantages to the player. These are some examples of its merits: • It allows the player to use their dominant hand for picking, thus giving them greater control over tone and speed. • It makes chords accessible with one-finger shapes, which would be awkward with a tenor banjo because of the location of the fifth banjo string. • It improves the player’s ability to play fiddle tunes. Because a special banjo is tuned to a chord, making transposing from the fiddle easier. This is especially helpful for self-teaching and playing with others.

  4. Left Handed Banjo • A left-handed popular banjo is one shaped to the contours of a right-handed player and strung in reverse i.e., with the lower notes on the right-hand side of the neck instead of on the person. • An instrument styled for left-handed players can be easier on both hands to pick with and more comfortable to hold while seated, especially if you are tall or have large hands.

  5. Advantages of a Left Handed Banjo: The first advantage of a left handed banjo is that it can be played with either hand. This enables the player to quickly switch between chords and/or bass notes without much adjustment. • A second advantage is that it can be played with a plectrum banjo or strummed with the fingers without any complication. Even if a player is used to playing with their right hand, they can simply play with their left. • The strings are the same as on right-handed banjos; the only difference is that it is strung backward. The result is that a left-hander has more natural and comfortable access to the banjo’s mechanics. • Conversely, a left-hander playing a right-handed banjo has to learn how to play in the opposite direction. A left-handed person feels more comfortable when they play an instrument strung in the opposite way.

  6. Disadvantages of a Left Handed Banjo: • The downside of left-handed instruments is that players are not typically readily available to repair them or string them up if broken. Parts are also typically harder to find because they are not mass-marketed for both handedness’s, so it can be time-consuming searching for a compatible part. • Left-handed instruments are not as easy to find in stores, and they usually command a higher price on the market than right-handed models. Fewer people want them, and not many manufacturers make them. • Left-handed instruments are also slightly less desirable for resale because there are significantly fewer players looking to buy one, and they can be more challenging for parents to find if their child has suddenly switched handedness.a
