Left Hand Guitar

Reviews of the top five selling left handed guitars

Here are our roundup of some of the best left handed guitars out there, sorted by category:

Best student acoustic:
Rogue RG-624

Rogue RG-624 Left Hand Guitar

Key Features

  • Spruce Top
  • Die-cast tuning keys allowing precise tuning
  • Body binding
  • Martin strings
  • Case available separately

This is a great guitar for a left handed beginner, and at it's incredible price, it is no wonder it tops the best-selling list. This model can very often be found at prices under $100, and as such makes a superb investment for budding guitarists. Serious players will outgrow it eventually, but this is an outstanding first guitar. In short: good guitar, amazing price. more

Best selling student electric:
Daisy Rock Rock Candy

Daisy Rock Rock Candy

Key Features

  • Sycamore body
  • Bolt-on maple neck
  • Rosewood fingerboard
  • 22 medium frets, 24 3/4" scale
  • Thin body, thin neck for smaller hands

Perhaps a little surprising, but the best-selling student electric is aimed at girls - as this Atomic Pink finish alludes. The Rock Candy is a great little guitar; it's still got a 24 3/4" scale, but as the official blurb states, it has "one of the thinnest necks in the industry plus a thin-profile body, it's perfect for smaller hands and female players".

But they are well-built, solid guitars; and a great choice for the beginning and intermediate player. more

Best classic solid body electrics:
Squier Affinity Left-Handed Telecaster Special

Squier Affinity Left-Handed Telecaster Special

Key Features

  • Alder body
  • Bolt-on maple neck
  • Maple fingerboard
  • 22 medium frets, 25 1/2" scale
  • Medium-jumbo frets

Squier are, of course, made by Fender to an excellent standard. The Affinity series Telecaster is outstanding value for money - the perfect instrument for new/intermediate players. more

Epiphone G-400 PRO Left-Handed Electric

Epiphone G-400 PRO Left-Handed Electric Guitar

Key Features

  • Mahogany double-cutaway 'SG' body
  • Set mahogany neck
  • Rosewood fingerboard with trapezoid inlays
  • 22 frets, 24 3/4" scale
  • Medium-jumbo frets
  • Alnico Classic Pro and Pro Plus humbuckers

Like the Squier produced by Fender, Epiphone are produced by Gibson - the G400 being based on a 1960s Gibson SG. Again outstanding value in a supremely playable guitar. more

Key Features

  • Basswood body
  • Bolt-on maple neck with rosewood fretboard
  • P and J pickup arrangement
  • Sleek black looks, finish and hardware

Rogue LX200BL

The Rogue LX200BL is an exceptional bass for the money. There are certainly a lot of better basses out there, but for a learner bassist, this instrument ticks all the boxes. Great looks, great functionality and a stunning price. Rock! more
