Great Left handed electric guitar models for all players

If you’re a left handed guitarist it can be quite difficult to find the right instrument for you, many times players settle on any of the left handed electric guitar models they can find, regardless of their performance. This article is going to suggest a few left handed electric guitars which may suit your needs, all the instruments suggested in this article are great value for money and produce a great tone.

If you’re a six string player you may want to look at the Epiphone Les Paul standard left handed electric guitar, these instruments have an awesome sound and are made out of quality materials. The Les Paul standard comes with two humbucking pickups which produce really warm tones, deep distortion and huge sustain, perfect for players who want to play rock music. Instruments in this line have solid mahogany bodies and necks, these quality materials really help the instrument produce its warm tones and the ebony finish just looks great! The Epiphone Les Paul left handed electric guitar is famed for its playability and comfortable neck; if you purchase an instrument from this range you will never have to experience the discomfort of playing a right handed guitar ever again.

If you’re a bass player then you needn’t worry, recently there has been a huge surge in the number of left handed bass guitars being introduced, and one of my favourites is the Ibanez SR300L IPT L. These instruments are hugely versatile; they offer players the ability to produce any tone suitable for different styles of music by simply adjusting the dial on the body. The Ibanez SR300L left handed bass guitar has a fast SR Maple neck which makes the instrument really easy to play, bassists wanting to reach the higher notes on the fret board will have no problem doing so with this model. The Ibanez EXF pickups provide the player with a huge variety of tones to choose from, whether you prefer to slap or finger strings, this bass guitar will be perfect for you needs. Retailing at around £270 ($400) these instruments also provide fantastic value for money, you won’t be able to find a more versatile left handed bass guitar for such a price.

If you’re more of an acoustic player then there are a great range of left handed acoustic guitars to choose from, the Fender CD-100 LH has been one of the most popular models for many years. Retailing at around £129 ($230) this is a more entry level acoustic suitable for players who are just starting to play the guitar, however the great sound of this instrument will make it a worthy addition to any guitarists’ collection. The Fender CD-100 has a dreadnought shape and a satin finish, the spruce top and mahogany sides make this a great looking instrument with a really modest price tag; the rosewood fingerboard makes it one of the most playable acoustics I’ve ever used.

Finding left handed electric guitars can be a real nightmare for even the most experienced players; I hope you take the time to check out some of the great instruments I’ve described in this article. On a final note, I always recommend players to purchase any instrument online, often guitars are available for a fraction of the price from Internet retailers than they are from traditional music stores. Traditional music stores often don’t even stock guitars for lefties; my local music store only has one left handed electric guitar available to choose from which can be really annoying when you want to try out the latest ranges.
