So much of what we do on a daily basis we do right handed. In fact products are designed for right handed people. But some are not, such as the guitar.
Left handed guitars are available, but can be hard to find. Most of the major manufacturer make left handed guitars but many music stores do not carry them on a regular basis. You may have to special order your guitar if you are after a specific style and brand.
The left handed guitar is basically a reversed, or mirrored image of a regular right handed guitar. The guitar strings are just reversed. The downside is that left handed guitars tend to cost a little more than a regular guitar. You have your choice of many styles and manufacturers though.

There is a small concern concerning left handed players. If you do not know how to play the guitar I must say that there are few guitar teachers who teach playing left handed. So if you find one book your lessons quick because they tend to book fast.
Some players often start off by watching a dvd course or some other course online for left handed players. If you learn from courses online there will be some advantages. The courses on video or online never get tired of teaching you the same things over and over. Plus you don't have to pay them a lot of money to do so. So the videos will never lose patience with you.
Even though there seems to be obsticles with playing left handed, it is worth the fight. You will stand out from other guitar players and you can one day teach another person how to play left handed and make some serious money.
