Hi all,


I have finally got round to a life time ambition to learn to play an instrument - the guitar.  Two weeks in and I've learnt some chords and can strum a tune (badly).


My problem is this.  I have been lent a guitar (right handed) but I am predomiantly left handed.  I am finding my way round the chords, but very slowly.  It .seems I struggle strumming and changing chords at the same time


Should I persist, or should I bite the bullet and try to get hold of a l/h guitar (rent, buy, beg, borrow or ste... no not the last one!).  From what I have been told restringing is not a good idea, especially on an old guitar.


Your views would be very welcome.


Steve
