Im gonna start taking guitar lessons soon, and Im looking for a good left handed guitar for a beginner. I have about 300$ to spend, any suggestions?
Try looking on musiciansfriend.com. Anything for $300 won't be perfect, but something in that price range should be fairly decent. There are reviews for most instruments, which I'd recommend reading before making a final decision.
you cn get a standard fender strat for like $369... thats as close to $300 as you can get with out gettin too shitty...
For that price you're probably going to be getting a Squire Strat or something along them lines. Go to your nearest big guitar store or try online. I'm a lefty myself, and it can be a pain sometimes, but thats usually only when your deadset on a specific guitar....
I'm left handed, and I play right handed bass. Handedness dosen't really matter, you can train either hand to do anything. I didn't really have much of a choice, and right handed instruments are more readily avaliable.
Eh, some people don't like strats... standard series doesn't have that great of a fit and finish, but I'm playing a standard as my other strat is gone from when we were broken into. I don't, really, I'm just stuck with one till I get something better. My Gibson has had a short in it ever since it was sent from the factory and I'm getting really pissed at Gibson's Quality Control, even though their prices are going up. For a little over $300 you could get something in the Ibanez Artcore line. I played a Scofield model yesterday and I'm thinking about going with one of theirs when I sell my other two electrics, even though I've never liked Ibanez's solid-body guitars. I do love their hollows and semi-hollows.
Oh yes, right handed guitars are cheaper too. Plus I think it sounds alot better with the tremolo backwards.
I think he meant learn righthanded.... I never bothered to do that.... I felt that if I learnt the way that naturally felt right I would play better.
i dont play giutar, but on a scale of 1 to fan-freaking-tastic...right handed guitars flipped upside-down looks awesome
They do? As far as electrics go, I wanna use a proper lefty. But with acoustics I don't mind so much. If it's a righthanded without a cutaway, I'll just restring it.
I have an Ibenez left handed electric and a Yamaha left handed acoustic. They both serve my purposes quite well. I got both at Sam Ash Music in Nashville.
But thats Hendrix man! I don't think an upside down strat would look cool on everyone. Hendrix was the first to do it, and the man also knew a thing or two about cool....
well, IMO buddy's got it going on, but for like, the mind-blowing noise and squealing stuff, i still like the flipped one
