Living in this world that is primarily built for right handed people is putting left handed individuals in quite a spot. Door knobs are placed on the right side of the door which makes it easy to use for a right handed person, but for most left handed people definitely it is on the wrong side. Locks open when a key is turned clockwise which is easy for a right handed person. Most of the things built in this world are designed for right handed people and taking into account the fact that 85-87% of the people are right handed. The same holds true in the world of music too as most people who are left handed are learning how to play the guitar find it very difficult to obtain left handed guitars.

Also we are often asked for advice from left-handed guitarists, both on the best way to teach guitar left-handed and for stockiest of left-handed guitars.

As with most things left-handed, the answers are never as straightforward as one would wish. If you are thinking of buying a left-handed guitar, you will find that the choice is very limited indeed. Whether it is acoustic or electric you are looking for, you may find there are no left-handed at all among the glittering display or with luck, perhaps two or three may be tucked away behind the right-handed. As with expensive equipment for many other hobbies or activities the economics of guitar production and sales makes it impossible for most stores to supply the range of choice that right-handed enjoy.
