The lefty thread

Post by Dancing Ants »

if you play lefty guitar, this is your paradise. post links to or place that sell alot of lefty guitars, techniques, whatever you want...and your guitars, and a description if you want! play on southpaws!
These are my guitars for a while. I found a lap steel guitar for $100 that I might try out, though.

Fender American Black/White Telecaster: Great sound, great playability. I love this and don't even own it yet (saturday, 11/8 baby!)

Epiphone Chet Atkins SST (left): 1 of 12 lefthanded models made. Good right now...will be GREAT when I'm done upgrading her. My main axe of choice.

Fender DG-10LH: My first guitar. I've grown to love this thing like a child. Stays in tune forever...4 months at a time at least. The parts a cheaply applied, but hey...it only cost $130. I love it though. Great sound...i love it.

I'm a complete lefty, my right hand/foot cannot do anything

Well, I write lefty, throw righty, bat righty, shoot with either, play guitar lefty. I just started playing maybe six months ago and have a Washburn D10SLH. Nothing spectacular but it gets the job done.
