Hiya,

Interesting discussion, but you're right, there isn't much here to actually help her play!

Have you searched the Web for "learn guitar" and "left-handed?" I have a couple of "teach yourself guitar" books (for righties) that were only about $6 a piece. If you head to a music store you can browse through a few of these and ask the guys at the store if they can show you a lefty book. Most of the learn-guitar books will show you what the notes are on the fretboard one by one, and how to read them on the staff (often they'll have both TAB and staff notation). This has helped me a lot--I have a long way to go, too, but I'm finally figuring out what the notes are and why the chords make those chords.

You'll most likely be getting a book like that when your lessons start up. If you have your instructor already, you could give 'em a call and ask which book to get. Then you can get a headstart.

Good luck!

Linda
