Here's a Bassballs from Musician's Fiend for $39. I don't know how long they will be at this price, but pretty cheap.

This was the last year of Summer NAMM which from what I understand is a good thing.

Just to be clear and on the record.
I am left-handed.
However, when I put my two arms together I seem to be right-handed. I play golf right-handed, swing a baseball bat right-handed and play guitar right-handed.

Or, perhaps, what I'm I'm doing is really left-handed and all the rest of the world is calling it backwards.

I recall Ronn saying once he was very left-hand dominant, which is quite rare. Most lefties, like me and apparently Mark are ambidextrous or flexible-handed.

I am left handed because I write with my left hand. I do a few other things left-handed, too, but playing guitar and bass isn't one of them. I play racquetball and tennis left handed but throw right handed, for example. I am ambi-footed playing soccer.

Because of Ronn's experience at the show vis-a-vis a lack of left-handed instruments available I always tell parents whose children want to play and are left-handed to try to get them to play the "wrong" way for them, which is to say, play right handed.

I gave that advice here one time and it was a bit controversial.

Someone didn't read the thread.
