I'm no expert on left handed guitars, but at 0:24, we can see that Bart strumming from top down showing that the strings are already reversed, so Otto simply flipping it to right handed should have been natural without any other changes.

Otto needs to tell his mean old dad that guitar isn't a waste of time.

now do classical gas

Bart's a left hander and has a left handed strat copy. Otto is a right hander and turns it upside-down. He plays a monumental solo which means he is the best guitar player in history- he literally played the guitar upside-down. On top of all of that, THE GUITAR IS AMPLIFIED EVERYWHERE IT IS PLAYED WITHOUT AN AMPLIFIER. That's cartoons I guess....
