TSO Contest - Southpaw Guitar Entry Wizards in Winter

Welcome to my TSO guitar entry. My name is Joe Cervo, I'm 19 years old and have been playing guitar left handed for 5 years. Just over 2 years ago I developed tendonitis in my fret board hand. I thought that was the end of my guitar playing, and it was very hard for me to accept the possibility of never playing again. So, I decided to start practicing right handed guitar. Over time, my tendonitis went away and I was able to gradually work back into left handed playing again. I've gained more knowledge, and look at guitar playing differently. Now I have two different perspectives of it.
