Topic: Joe lefthanded in the cartoon picture at the entrance to his web site.

Just went to Joe's web site today and noticed that the entrance page showing Sloe Gin debut at #1 on Billboard Blues chart has a cartoon picture of Joe in the upper right corner of the page.  It appears to be backwards, or Joe switched to lefthanded!  Kind of odd, guess it just be a mistake by a web master.

I noticed that too but since it's a cartoon I figured either someone doesn't know the difference or they were just taking liberties. I wouldn't be surprised however that Joe can play with either hand (probably his toes too LOL).

I'm just saying.

That is really funny.  I didn't even notice.

I noticed it on the web entrance right away...It's JBRules' avatar, not sure if he designed it, JBRules, you out there?

While reading some other posts, I did see that it was JBRules avatar, but it is reversed making it correct!

I'm happy to take my Les Paul to Joe and let him play it then I can noncholantly drop out at the jam night at the pub as I sip my beer "Yes, Joe Bonamassa has actually played this guitar you know". Just let me know Joe smile

A left handed picture is correct given the placement of the picture (art layout wise).  Form must triumph over function in these kinds of things!
