With virtually no lefty guitars/basses at the local guitar shops, making and playing lefty Cigar Box (or Cigar Box style) guitars and basses has been very satisfying.

lots of good newbie charts for either hand on the how to page!

Hey Wes! Thanks for the great Punch Cigar Amp I bought from you at the PA Festival! (Sorry I got you yelled at!) It sounds great, I'd tell anyone interested to talk to you about them! I have your buddy making me a lefty CBG just like the one he made you only in a 3 stringer. Think he gets back from vacation this week... Welcome Leftys!
