I always describe myself as a lefty, since i use the left hand to write, to drink, to use a spoon, to brush my teeth, to play ping pong, among other things.. However, i use my right hand for many, things as well.. To play soccer, basketball, tennis, kendo, scissors, knives, etc… i’m a beginner in the ways of the guitar! When I was little, i tried to play a left handed guitar since it was the logical way, but it was confusing to me, because a right handed guitar felt more natural, so everytime i pick up a guitar, i use it in a righty way. However, it always seemed hard to me to learn how to play guitar, and i thought it was because i simply sucked at it! However, the other day i tried to do a little exercise with a lefty guitar and i did it much better than i usually do with a righty one! in spite of being unconfortable, maybe it is the right way for me to play! i don’t know! I want to buy a electric guitar, but i don´t know which one.. a left hand or a right handed guitar?
I see no reason to play a left handed guitar, especially if you already feel comfortable with a right handed guitar. Guitar playing is not a skill that requires you to start learning with your main hand. As for your recent experience, I would suggest you try it on a right handed guitar – it may just be time for you to start playing. I know many people take a few runs at guitar playing before it sticks
.
Another consideration – there are far more right handed guitars than left handed ones.
And it sounds to me like you are more ambidextrous….
