I’m left handed but also in the possession of a regular guitar, I’ve half gotten into it a couple times and can play the basic letter chords and do some progressions etc.
Is it worth while to get a lefty guitar? Will picking ability limit me in a big way? I have noticed that being rhythmic in licking with my right hand can be tricky, but I figured it’s something I can learn through...

Jimi Hendrix, probably the most famous electric guitar player ever, did this way. He was a lefty. If you haven't seen him on video, please do it right now. Your mind will be blown! If acoustic, they are often totally symmetrical, so no difference. > I have noticed that being rhythmic in licking with my right hand can be tricky, but I figured it’s something I can learn through... I think lefties are more likely to be able to play guitar "ambidextrously", an impressive sight. The rhythmic hand (strumming hand) is the most difficult to train, IMO. Pressing the frets is learned way quicker than picking properly.
