If you are left-handed, you may or may not play the guitar with your left hand. It primarily depends on individual preference and what feels comfortable. Usually, you can obtain a left-handed guitar if you need one. There are differences between right-handed guitars and left-handed guitars.

There are various shape variations. For instance, the arrangement of the strings is different. In a right-handed guitar, the low E string is located at the top, while the high E string is at the bottom.

Let’s say you have $10,000. Sounds pretty good, right? You’re sixteen or seventeen years old and you’re thinking about getting a car. You have your driver’s license, but limited driving experience. Would you spend $8,000 of your savings on an awesome, luxurious sports car?
