Besides, he will have so many more guitars to choose from, and they will cost less. |

As to whether my sinister hand is the "smarter" one, well............ |

Location: Suisun City, Ca | Good points about starting right-handed. He was over last night and I handed him the 1617. He shows an aptitude, so I think I'll surf the 'bay for an Idea...
Thanks for the replies, folks.
