I am a beginner and know nothing about guitars. I just bought (what I assume is) a right handed guitar. I don't want to return it and seek out a left handed one just for beginning.... Can't I just have the strings re-tied so they work like a left handed guitar?


Answer
You say "re-tied" - does that mean it's a classical style guitar with nylon strings? If so, then yes you can just switch the strings. If it's a steel string - then it's not quite as easy. The nut (by the tuning pegs) is slotted for the width of the strings. You may have to file the bass string slots wider so the strings fit. Also, like the other post said - consider playing "right-handed" lots of lefties do.
