Hey Tweetie,

I am in the same boat. I just figured I would try righty, because of the selection of guitars and not having to transpose everything when trying to learn from right-handed players or teachers. This was suggested to me when I was young (and didn't learn much), but it now feels more natural to hold a right-handed guitar.
