Default Concerns when ordering a Lefty? Multiscale?

After years of thought and number crunching, I have decided to commission my first custom build.

Being lefty has meant that I have had to more or less try rightys at stores and then order blind.... but this is obviously a bit bigger of a decision (and price range).

Do builders have any real difficulty in building left handed guitars. I have had bad experiences with repairs, and often have to take them back a few times to get them done right, as no one really takes the guitar through its paces once īset upī.

Looking to go with a fingerstyle instrument and possibly multiscale, which could cause even more of a headache.

Currently own a 614ce taylor (maple back and sides) and looking to go with something with a bit more mellow tone. That thing is bright (in all the right ways) and i want something to compliment her nicely.

Thanks for the advice!
