Walk into many guitar shops and you may find a few left-handed guitars tucked among rows of right-handed instruments. At Southpaw Guitars, the whole store is different: every guitar on the wall is made for left-handed players. No searching past right-handed models to find the one that feels natural.
That focus is what “Lefty Guitars Only” means. It’s our identity, our signature collection, and the easiest place to start looking for your next instrument. We have served the left-handed music community for more than 46 years from Houston, Texas, and keep over 900 left-handed guitars in stock.
Whether you’re choosing your first guitar, adding to a collection, or shopping for a left-handed player in your life, you’re welcome here.
A guitar shop built around left-handed players
Left-handed players know the routine: a store has plenty of guitars, but only a small number are available in a left-handed version. You might have to order without trying one, settle for a limited choice, or wonder whether a right-handed guitar can be flipped or restrung to work.
Southpaw Guitars was built to make that search easier. Our entire guitar inventory is left-handed. That means you can browse electric, acoustic, and bass options without sorting through right-handed instruments first.
A left-handed guitar is designed for left-handed playing, with its strings and playing layout arranged for a southpaw. It’s a straightforward way to find an instrument intended to feel right from the start.
More left-handed guitars to compare
A large selection matters because the right instrument is personal. Shape, sound, feel, and appearance all play a part. A beginner may be looking for a comfortable first guitar, while an experienced player may have a specific style or sound in mind.
With more than 900 left-handed guitars in stock, Southpaw offers a wide range to explore. Shop left handed guitars for sale across electric and acoustic styles, and find left-handed basses for players looking to hold down the low end. The exact selection changes as instruments arrive and sell, so it’s worth checking current listings when you’re ready to shop.
Start with the Lefty Guitars Only collection, then narrow your search by type. Browse left-handed electric guitars, left-handed acoustic guitars, or left-handed bass guitars. You can compare available instruments and check the details on individual listings.
Electric, acoustic, or bass: start with what you want to play
If you’re choosing an electric guitar, you can look through left-handed options across familiar shapes and styles. Use the collection to compare what’s available, and contact us if you’d like help finding an instrument that suits your goals.
For a more unplugged sound, our left-handed acoustic guitars give you a range of options for practice, songwriting, and playing with others. If you’re not sure what type of acoustic to consider, our team can help you think through the sound and feel you’re after.
Bass players are part of the left-handed community, too. Southpaw carries left-handed bass guitars for players who want an instrument arranged for their playing hand. Browse the listings online or ask our team for guidance.
There’s no one best choice for every player. The useful first step is to try or compare instruments that are actually designed for left-handed playing.
A long history of looking out for lefties
Southpaw’s specialty comes from a simple problem many left-handed guitarists recognize: finding a good instrument can take extra effort. The shop began in Houston in 1980, and its focus on left-handed players has remained central ever since.
That experience matters when you have questions. You might be buying your first guitar, comparing an acoustic with an electric, or looking for a particular kind of lefty instrument. Our team is here to offer practical guidance and help you explore what’s available.
We serve players at every stage, from newcomers learning their first chords to musicians who have been playing for years. You don’t need to know every technical detail before you reach out. Tell us what you hope to play, and we’ll help you take the next step.
