Serious question, as a beginner are you sure you need to learn left handed? I’m left handed in day to day life but play right handed. My old man is the same.
Having more dexterity (ironic word) in your left hand arguably makes more sense for a lot of “right handed” playing as your right hand is just hitting the strings... until you get into tricky finger style stuff anyway.
You end up needing to develop both hands so it’s not like a one-handed activity where you will naturally go to your dominant hand.

I've decided to jump on two bandwagons.
#1 - the learn something new in lockdown
#2 - to learn something new before I'm 60
So - hopefully if all goes to plan I'll soon have time on my hands to ride my bike and learn the guitar.
So I've looked up the best guitars for left handed beginners. That cuts the list down for sure.
Any advice? I don't like buying the cheapest, it often means almost giving away when moving up or deciding it's now for me. But I also have to get FD approval so don't want to break the bank.
Listening to the sound (and accepting I'm never going to get there) I loved the sound of the Epiphone Hummingbird Pro (but don't think it comes in LH).
Happy to buy second hand from a trusted source
cheers
