Welcome to the Forum Maton123!

Why do 90% of guitarists play using their dominant hand as the “strumming/picking” hand? I wish I had followed what they DID instead of what they SAID. I’d be playing left-handed guitars today if I had.

Every person uses different criteria to make decisions. I'd like to think that focusing on making music with my instrument would be more important to me than having the broadest selection of instruments available to replace it.

Another issue is that most training materials are oriented to right-handed players, so left-handers always have to mentally "flip" illustrations, and reverse hands in "with your right hand pick the first string".

Whichever you decide, good luck with your journey!
