Lefty Guitars Of The Month

Lefty Guitars Of The Month

Welcome to the ultimate monthly roundup for left-handed players! Every month, I dig deep into the guitar world—new releases, rare used finds, oddballs, and absolute tone monsters—to bring you the coolest left-handed guitars and basses I can find. Whether you’re a collector, a player, or just love drooling over gear, this is your space.

Expect everything from pristine newly released models to killer used deals (yes, even the ones buried on eBay). Some guitars are hot and in stock—others are one-of-a-kind and might be gone tomorrow.

Check back each month for fresh finds—and if you spot a great lefty out in the wild, send it in and you might see it featured here!

Guitars Of The Month – May 2025

Schecter Solo II Przym Palladium

Schecter Solo II Przym Palladium

Available At:

Sweetwater GuitarCenter

Notes: The all new Przym Palladium series brings together the artistry of traditional bespoke metal engraving and modern functionality, inspired by timeless baroque designs seen in vintage American gunsmithing and custom built lowriders. This awesome axe features an etched metal top faceplate, ebony fretboard, and Fishman Fluence pickups!

PRS Custom 24 Wood Library

PRS Custom 24 Wood Library Left Handed

Available At:

Thomann

Notes: Thomann actually has quite a few incredible Wood Library PRS lefties available at the moment. However, this Custom 24 with its eye-catching McCarty Sunburst finish is my personal favorite! Head over to check out the Charcoal Cherryburst, Eriza Verde, Black Gold Burst, and Faded Whale Blue models as well.

1988 Gibson Les Paul Standard (Signed)

Available At:

Chicago Music Exchange

Notes: This 1988 Gibson Les Paul Standard is a little different as it has been signed by Les Paul, Elliot Easton, and all of the members of Aerosmith. You’ll pay a premium for the signatures of such rock royalty, but what a unique piece!

Ibanez RG7421EXL 7-String

Available At:

Notes: Ibanez recently unveiled this brand-new 7-string that has immediately become one of the most affordable lefty 7s currently available. Unfortunately, it only seems to be available in the European market for now. Fingers crossed we see a worldwide release later in the year!
