I'm left handed, but play right handed guitars. The people who showed me how to play had right handed guitars......and it made sense for me to learn on a right handed guitar (since I was beginning anyway), so that I could pick up most guitars lying around and play them.

When I first starting playing I would just flip a Right Handed guitar over, Soon after I started re-stringing Right Handed guitars. Now days I only play actual Left Handed Guitars strung Left Handed.

Although I can still flip over a Right Handed and play a little.

I'm lefty but learned to play righty on the advice of a left handed trumpet teacher, believe it or not. I'm so glad I listened to her. As a matter of fact, playing the guitar is the only thing I do right handed by choice.
