Gavin, Good Question!
I am left handed and play guitar upside-down and Backwards.
So, Dick Dale has always been an inspiration to me.
The local music store here on the Big Island had his sig. Guitar
Here for a few years, it just gathered dust. Maybe they sold it to
A Japanese Tourist, I hear they own all the old Fenders, anyways.
It came in a molded frame/box to fit, with artwork and surf stickers
All over the frame. It looked like it was to be never played,
More like a "art". $2000 bucks or something like that, eight years ago.
I could not afford that, so I still play a righty, lefty.
Left handed guitars have always cost more.
I also just heard of a Guitar Shop called Southpaws (Texas?),
Where the right handed guitars cost more than the lefties!
I'll be looking into that...
Laterz Verbz, Kim
