I'm a Righty, it just happened that way. :guitar
One of the things I've found strange is prices of some Lefties I've seen, being cheaper, than the righty version.

Just a heads up: I heard it through the grapevine that there's a new lefty C-03R-TE/Tommy Emmanuel headed for Rock and Roll Vintage Guitars in Chicago. I have no affiliation - just thought there might be another lefty here looking for one of these who would like to know...

:thumbsup

Hi,I am also a left handed player.
I have an OM 3,which I guess it would be classified as a 4,as it has a gloss top that was made especially for the 12 fret in Toronto.,In 1999.
It was right handed but they  converted It over  to a left handed one.
I am now waiting on a true left hand Larrivee L9.
I ordered it last July,and it was supposed to have been made on the 2nd week of May.,so I am just in a waiting mode

Very cool - that will be a nice guitar. Hope you get it soon!

I have a couple L-09's that have been converted to lefty (well, one still needs the saddle reversed, but...) it works great and I love 'em!

Lefty here too. Have not posted in a very long time but still check in from time to time. I've got 3 lefty Larrivees, plus a bunch of others too. Lately I've been playing my RS2 more than my Les Paul. My 91 C-19 started my Larrivee journey, and my Forum 3 LS is a keeper too. I've played Tuffy's mahogany Forum 3, and the tone is outstanding.  Viva les lefties!
