Is it suitable for left-handed players? (install the strings in opposite order)

No problem at all. It's fan-braced (three fans) and totally symmetrical inside. Because it's for nylon strings and they are all similar diameter, I doubt you would even need to recut the nut as you would for a steel string guitar. Go for it!

Yes It would not be a problem at all. It would even look just fine like it was supposed to be a lefty.

Thank you for the helpful answers, but is there somebody out there who has actually tried restringing & playing a Yamaha guitalele left handed who can advise? I'm tempted to try it, but feeling a little hesitant because it appears the saddle may be set at a slight angle, which could lead to intonation problems & require a change of bridge to sort out.. not necessarily a cheap & straightforward job? The end of the fretboard is also angled the wrong way which might concievably be limiting for an advanced player but isn't going to bother me in the slightest. I think the bracing & nut issues have been adequately covered by the previous answers.

I am a lefty, but I play drums right handed. That being said, yes the system is completely flexible and can we switched.

I got a right handed model but I think I have seen the left handed available also. Great guitar. My son loves it.

I'm not certain. However, I checked the QuickStart guide and saw no reference to "left hand." From my view, I can think of no reason why it would not work for a left handed person.

This is a right handed guitar, but it could easily be adapted to a left handed player

Individual string lengths will not be compensated for proper intonation with a left hand guitar. A different one is needed.Graphtech Tusq Saddle Compensated Lefty PQ-9280-L0

Yes go to http://www.guitar-academy.com or http://www.quitar-academy.co.UK/index-download.htm for free lessons ...they also sell left handed guitars :) ...since he has never played I think either way would work..:) good luck I hope this was helpful. Happy Holidays

To be fair, it does look like an awkward set-up for right-handed players. This keyboard looks gorgeous and the bells and whistles are neat, but I can't help but think the LCD pad/touchscreen would have been better off on the left hand side.

This instrument will work for both left and right handed users. It is universal.

Mine is right handed, but you could order it left handed. All they need to do is reverse the strings for you. They are excellent at pleasing their customers ( The EPIPHONE people. Just let them know of your request and I am sure that they'll take care of you. By the way, I love my guitar (Epiphone DR-100 Natural).

You would need to contact the manufacturer, but I don't believe it is available currently for left handed users.

This guitar comes with strings installed for right-hand players but the guitar is symmetrical and can be used left handed. It is very easy to play and has a good sound for the price.

I have not been able to find any. I agree with other post -- if left handed this is not recommended as there is no suitable way of changing it for left handed configuration.

This is a right handed mandolin. you could string it upside down, but it does not come set up for a lefty.

Yes you can!!! I actually bought it on Saturday and was worried bout the same thing but it hooks up and plays wonderfully!!! At beginning of Rocksmith it gives you an option to choose left or right handed. I believe it only gives you that option on Rocksmith 2014

No...my husband had to take it to a bow shop and have it fitted for lefty. It was an inexpensive fix.
