Doubt it, don't know anything about guitars.
You should get one as a business tool - just look at how many slices of cheese you can cut at one go.

A slicer is much better and ours looks like this

I wonder if Gio will admit to having heard of the great James Marshall Hendrix then ....

Wasn't he a Strat man? Don't imagine a Les Paul would have suited him - upside down or otherwise

Sure he played a Strat and also a Flying V .... but I bet he could have made great music on a Les Paul or even Gio's bacon slicer.

Are the strings upside down on a left handed guitar?

How can something that is symetrical through 360* be upside down.

When they are placed in an order top down or bottom up if you are that way inclined, you could also on some strings put the wrong end into the machine head.
I knew exactly what
Gio was getting as he is who he is

No, they're the right way up - that's the whole point of having left hand and right hand guitars.
Some left-handed people who choose to use Right handed guitars re-string them to put the strings in the usual top to bottom order but if I remember correctly (and I may not!) Hendrix didn't bother.
