I'm left-handed.

I hold the harp in my left hand with the numbers up.

I will sometimes consciously hold it in my right hand so I can use my left 
hand for effects.

Like many things about the harp, I did this instinctively . It wans't until 
I read threads about this on Harp-L that I began to think more about my grip 
on the harp and its effect on my tone.

Thanks again to the many contributors to this subject on Harp-L for yet more 
great information.

Another of the many many things of I learned on Harp-L.
