I'm left handed: do I have to play a left handed guitar?

Not at all! Some of the most famous guitarists in the world are lefties who play right handed guitars: Mark Knopfler, Gary Moore and Robert Fripp are all southpaw players who play in the traditional right handed way. We have found from talking to customers that simply getting them to hold both a left handed guitar and then a right handed guitar in the normal playing position will quickly establish a preference, even if they can't yet play!
