That picture is impressive, as Ringo is left handed. I wonder if he could play anything at all with a righty guitar.

By the way, he also owns John's Rose Morris 325, so I wonder if there are pictures of him with that one as well.

I heard that Ringo was lefthanded. True, he plays his drums in a right-handed orientation, but I had read that he does most things with his left hand...thus making him left handed.

Could be ambidextrous also, he's holding his butt in his right hand, of course he has a guitar in his left.

LOL Bob. I had to scroll up to the photo to see what you were talking about.
Life, as with music, often requires one to let go of the melody and listen to the rhythm

I guess it doesn't matter what hand Ringo drummed with as in the studio they used Andy White and other musicians Image

I had read that Ringo is left-handed, as well.
But, I swear I've seen pictures or footage of him writing with his right hand. Am I daffy?
