The reason I brought up the whole left-handed thing is because of my son, who is very lefty...he does EVERYTHING lefty, as opposed to some ppl who are somewhat ambidextrous and do different things with different hands.  Yes, I remember the days even in the 70s when I went thru elementary school, the teachers telling the leftys over and over again to use their right instead. I disagree with the practice and refuse to force a handedness on my child. For this reason I want to accomodate him so he feels most natural when learning to play. His and my electrics have all 6 tuners on one side. Thenut should be reversed because the grooves that hold the strings are sized for the strings. While he is so little I may string it up w/o worrying about the nut for now, but when he gets a bigger better guitar it will be done. By then I should have a good idea of whether or not he will continue to play lefty or will try to play righty.
On a last note...I hug my guitar every night(but have not attempted reproduction)At 44 I'm done giving birth, and that would be a difficult one. LOL! I have a hubby who is not music oriented at all and not very supportive of our guitar playing and love of writing and music. I dont know how that happened but it did, and so yes, my guitar is probably what you could say is my "main squeeze"
