So you want to buy a left-handed guitar?
I was once, in my youth, looking to buy a left-handed guitar and found myself in a music store of some sort. I told the salesman who approached me this and he showed me the few models they had. I wasn't too impressed with them or the fact that they were almost twice the price as the "regular" versions. The salesman told me that it would be better to buy a right-handed guitar.
Me: But I'm left-handed.
Salesman: Yes, but you wouldn't learn how to play the violin with your feet, now would you?
Me: (thinking) Touché.
Salesman: You'd use your hands! Your right hand!
I did not buy a guitar that day, nor any day since. Not until I can play a violin with my feet.
