• Justin is a south paw
Justin is left –handed but when he started playing guitar, he was using a right handed guitar since it was the only one available at home then. He would pick it up left handed and his mom would switch it back the other way and he would try to play. Of course it was not easy. On his birthday his mom bought him a left-handed guitar and since then have played a left-handed guitar.

• Justin’s voice is changing
When he was 16 (he is 17 now), he admitted that his voice was changing, although it is a very smooth transition so far. He is working with the best voice coaches to train him and help him make adjustment to the changes. Photo Copyright of PR PHOTOS
