Welcome to the forum.

What? After twenty years? Old dog here, can't teach those all too many new tricks

Actually I gave it a try a couple times a few years back. I was getting frustrated at not being able to afford a Gibson LP Junior in lefthand. Gave the old fliproutine a try for a few months. My fingers kept getting tangled in the strings and I couldn't keep time anymore... The guys in my (then) band applauded the effort - the results not so much. Ended up buying a splendid Tokai version of the '59 LP doublecut Junior. That thing is awsome. And I do mean I am in awe everytime I play it. I also own a MIJ Fender strat, it's a '70RI with that funky big headstock, love that look. Just getting done on the refinishing of an old cheapo Condor LP copy. It's got that typical mid eighties Jap pancake slabbed body and wavey neck. I'll post some pics in the appropriate forum when I get back from three weeks round Sweden.

Welcome to the forum. I'm one of the "lucky" lefties that plays right handed. Maybe you could play a flipped over strat? That sort of looks like a Mosrite

Hey-

Haven't visited this forum in a while but did want to show you that vintage lefty Mosrites do exist. You could probably count them on one hand though.

Below is my lefty 1967 Mosrite Joe Maphis:

Wow! How does the vibrato feel with the arm up top like that?

...a bit like a SRV Strat perhaps but then for the "other" arm, maybe?... :roll:

Maybe like Hendrix playing a 'Righty' Strat??

I'ld talk to Bob Shade if you want a lefty you'ld have to order it but the Hallmark 60 Custom are really NICE.
