there's one main issue with flipping a right handed electric guitar to play as a leftie

KNOBS

they WILL get in the way of your strumming arm, especially on a strat style guitar. the toggle switch for pickups will also be a huge hassle.

as cheezyridr said, the intonation is also another big issue, here's the choice you'll have to make... either buy a right handed electric and then have the store flip the bridge / nut and recalibrate the intonation (might cost a little more than a standard setup). OR you can pay the extra premium for a left handed model (usually around $100). this one is actually 'easier' to fix as it usually has to be done by a tech since most people don't own harmonic tuners.
