Re: What guitar do I buy for my daughter?

jimmy expounded in news:ftir24h4jod71u3msfeemk327g6o4l6v0b@xxxxxxx:

My daughter is also left handed - do I need to buy her a left handed
guitar or do they just string a normal one upside down??
...
I think of the 100's of times I've been somewhere other than home and
picked up someone elses guitar & played. 99 times out of 100 that
wouldn't have happened if I played left handed. There's great demand
from each hand when playing guitar. I think anyone could learn to
play either way.

Well if GP magazine is any indicator, there seesm to
be several "stars" that were left handed and
succeeded at playing righty.

Snark.
