Ok what's your opinions please. Buying a guitar this week, here's the thing. I learned bass in high school right handed. My mates been kinda showing me how to play on a right handed acoustic recently. But now I'm thinking, I can get a left-handed acoustic for the same price as a right. But will i be able to just switch things backwards and unlearn everything? Like will I need to get the sheet music backwards? cause I'm getting confused. I strum better with my left... I think :? Please anyone who has an opinion reply as I want to get started learning this week. Thanks, ash x

Actually my friend...... Left handed guitars are more expensive that right handed ones.... I have experience wiht this because I am a left handed person .....there is one option.... learn guitar on your own but have the strings upside down, pull a Jimmy Hendrix BUT because of the way the necks are designed itll fee lwierd if the guitar is upside down or switched over....
