I remember reading about chase and how he said with his background and his beginnings he couldn't afford a specialist left handed guitar. (I'm not sure they're much different in price now, but I'm sure they would have been at one point). So he learnt to play one upside down. Once you learn something, it's really difficult to unlearn it. Having a LH guitar now would be like starting from scratch.
Crazy talented dude.

He is very talented. I'm sure playing a guitar that way would give him an advantage on certain things, as well as a somewhat unique sound. Similar to the Beatles with Ringo's drumming using a right hand kit instead of a left.

Very probably, tiny little changes in instruments can produce vastly different outcomes.

Very true.
