I am too, for most things. My Son still freaks out about how fast and accurate I can throw a football lefthanded. Playing guitar opposite feels retarded to me still but I can write somewhat good lefthanded. When I had nerve damage in my right hand from work, it was sort of necessary to put the left to use. Ever try to wipe you ass when you can't feel the toilet paper? That was a chore, learning to wipe ass with the lefthand LMAO. It took almost 2 tears for me to get feeling in my right hand again. About 99% now, I still have occasional numbness in my fingertips. It really sucked being a guitar player. It's a horrible feeling not feeling the pick between your fingers
 
Broke my right hand dunking a basketball when I was a freshman in high school. They would wrap the cast in foam before practice, and I would play. I liked to score, so I got pretty good with my left, best thing that happened to me as I was forced to learn to go to my left. I still have a killer first step to my left after a wicked crossover....

I had my left arm partially severed back in '82, and I never got my fingers to work proper since.
just killed me being unable to play any more….. :(
…. and now that I've got a torn something or other in my right shoulder, for 12 months I've been struggling to wipe my arse (ass - American translation), left handed, 'coz sometimes you just can't feel 'sh*t', literally. :pottytrain5:
 
I hadn't noticed that smilie before.....

BD, on the Bryston, I have a drawerfil of those relays, but I don't know of anyway to replace them except to take the board out...

does that mean the trannies have to be disconnected.
i don't know, i'm only asking as i haven't got it in front of me with the lid popped to have a look.
there's a stack of stuff on top of them, and i got no room to move, otherwise i'd pull one out.
from the pics, i can see screws securing the board, but i don't know how the trannies are connected.
if i do have to pull them to swing the board out enough to get a soldering iron in there, and redo the grease thing, i'll just leave it, and just keep pulling the bananas out when powering off or on.
bad design…..
 
That's the on/off muting and DC prorect relay. To get the boards out you have to desolder each one. No sockerts right? If they are they are soldered in....

Right!

shame they're not socket mount.
… but i guess it's not the sort of thing you'd change often.
apparently this model had bad relays, so brystons told me to change 'em.
they're the same but black, not yellow. still Omron G5V-1 24VDC

i really need to have another look at it.
bit hard when i use it all day, and having all that crap on top of it.
took me hours to get everything just right.
x-overs and more x-overs, and attenuators, and limiters, and blah blah blah.
too many bleeding wires to unplug, and i just don't feel like it….. LoL.
