From a C.F. Martin & Co. ad:
"Your left hand is what you know; your right hand is who you are."

I dunno; I watched Jimi Hendrix Electric Church, a movie about his performance July 4, 1970 at the Atlanta International Pop Festival, and I was amazed by how little his picking hand actually did - I mean, a lot of the notes, quite possibly a majority, were hammer-ons, pull-offs, and slides. So maybe for him CFM's left-right division still holds - or maybe his right was both.

Nothing like a 100 watt Marshall amp on '11' for dynamics.

Fortunately, Alembic & the Grateful Dead invented modern sound reinforcement in the '70s, so that kind of foolishness is no longer necessary.
Peter (who, as a soundman, urges everyone to get a 10-20w amp, and set it blowing across the stage; don't worry, I have mics - I'll make sure they hear you)

i never let the right hand know what the left hand's doing. it's usually better that way.
