Lefties, lefties, lefties?

Really ! ! ? ? Where'd you hear that ?

 

Private Stock only, but I guess it's always worth a phone call to PRS to see if they'd reconsider regular production for Lefties.

 

Hi, there are lefty George Lynch models in stock here:

I too am lefty. Have you guys ever considered learning to play righty? Wouldn't it be so great to have options and vintage gear more accessible?

I am bummed that it is even hard to buy new gear...and that certain models are not available to us...you know?

 

I've tried switching to righty... it just didn't work or I didn't have the patience to relearn...

 

there is nothing as difficult as finding a decent lefty. i had a nice body and neck made (usacg), bought sweet parts (lollar, callaham, sperzel), the guy i sent it to to finish in shoreline gold stole the f'er and has dropped off the face of the earth. i cant find a trace of him. i give up

 

Hey man keep it lefty! Just be more patient and keep your eyes open on the web. I've seen plenty of nice vintage guitars on ebay for lefties but they don't show up everyday. Either way the music is always more important that the gear so let those righty's keep their axes.

I have thought about getting a righty double cut-away before and buying a new nut to flip the strings around, just dont want to damage a nice guitar trying. Anyone done it before?

 

Here's my personal piece of heaven. :AOK

first time I came across that site I almost cried....

 

i'm a lefty and played for 27 yrs. the key is PATIENCE. i've managed to get a good collection of GREAT lefties, but they are few and far between. AND like righties, not all that you find are good playing guitars. yrs ago i had good luck at the old rhythm city in atlanta before GC bought them out. bought several off the web that are fantastic guitars. southpaw guitars has a lot of inventory, but i've never bought a guitar from them. keep an eye on ebay, they pop up, but again be patient and have funds available. good luck , chris.

 

How do I order from these guys from the US ? I am GASsing for this one:

Being a leftie - I feel your pain...

I have managed over the years to get a few nice strats and am waiting on a G&L bluesboy. I also have discovered Carvin's stuff and they do make a really nice guitar - I have a couple of their CT models (a 3 and a 6) and have built and played a bolt kit that was awesome for the amount they charge for it.

Oh man.
So will they ship to the US?

 

There are small custom guys building them too!!

 

Not directly.....

 

Sucks that PRS doesn't make lefties, I'd hit a CE 22 Goldtop in a second. I'm gonna go with a Gibson 335 instead I GUESS UHGGGGGGGGGGG

 

Jerry's Lefty Guitars in FL has a great selection of left handed acoustics and electrics. Duesenberg, Collings, Santa Cruz, Heritage just to name a few. Jerry is great to work with.

 

I've never had any problems. Way more lefty guitars now then when I started. When your ready for that Lynch let me know, I usually know someone who has one of those .
