In 1980, Jim Duncan and his friend, Bill Townsend opened a music store called "Traders Corner" then "Gold 'n Guitar Exchange". With $2000, their own individual guitars as stock and no experience, a new business was born.
After selling their own personal guitars, Jim and Bill went about replacing them. This simple need became the stepping stone for a new location. He reasoned that if he was having a tough time finding quality lefty instruments, others were experiencing the same woes. In a quest to fill these needs, SouthPaw Guitars came into being. With the advent of the guitar show phenomenon, came the availability of quality pre owned left-hand products. Right-handed dealers had no use for these instruments and started seeking Jim out to buy them. Jim began attending guitar shows and advertising in various trade and music magazines to expand his customer base. Jim continues to lobby the manufacturers to build quality instruments for the lefty market.

What a super nice guy with extreme talent! Good luck brother.
I waited 20 years to get mine. I bought it for my 40th birthday.
Somewhat disappointed, they stop caring the Takamine Line Guitar 🤷🏼♀️😢
What size of the strings?
13-56 Mediums
Lefties paradise!!!! 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
The holy grail of lefty Fenders. Ironic that it was a lefty that made them famous, but Fender won't make them for us.
Do you have 6 string basses? Hard to find them being a lefty
I've been able to play both left-handed and right-handed since I was 17. The weird thing is that it was something absolutely natural. Almost like a necessity. I am completely ambidextrous. I mean... Sometimes is annoying
Looks like one that was stolen from me. Don’t worry, I didn’t record the serial number, unfortunately. 🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️. Great guitar!
That’s a right handed player that dabbles in left handed playing. Immediately obvious by his lack of comfort while left handed.
Such a beautiful instrument, fender needs to do another run on lefty offsets
Thank you, Southpaw Guitars.
Thank you, Southpaw guitars!
Left handed vintage guitars are severely undervalued. They will outperform ALL markets over the next 40 years
Made me cry good tears.. God bless yuns .. wow
I can play like that...infact I started playing guitar with a right hand guitar as well as my strings were opposite where I used my own chords
Your channel name shortens to Southpawg here in shorts.
This video answered a question since my wife told me to build a Clapton guitar. I couldn't figure out how to wire the pots lefty. Watch the video, Fender even wires them righty
Ambidextrous genious..
I’m a lefty and I want to know how much for the SG!!!! As a lefty I love irregular shapes and would love to demo
i play both ways as well but both the right way around for each
I like the American Eagle slightly over the L00
So georgeous.. As a lefty its a bucket lister to play one..
Which telecaster is the one you are playing, thanks
I’m right handed and play guitar right handed and I have tried playing left handed plenty of times and it’s very hard to do it and it’s even harder when the strings are still strung right handed. Also kinda frustrating knowing the notes and being unable to play them, I was convinced that nobody could pull it off until I saw this video.
ive yet to see and hear a Left handed guitarist play as well or shred like Steve Vai, or zake Wylde, show me just one...
I’ll make a video for you
I am loving the Kurt cobain guitars and the single coil mustang
Interesting how he went from right-handed to left-handed after having a hallucination.
☝️ 'PromoSM'
i also can play with both hand .. same thing on writing and another tasks
wow i wonder what he's doing now
Hoping that this is what heaven looks like 😍
love it
Carlos Santana
I used to go to the same church as Jimmy, New Creation Fellowship. I bought a right handed black Gibson Explorer from Jimmy. Great guy. Hi Jimmy, from Kerry the blonde guy.
i need one of these
I have finally found my home. Left handed guitarists unite.
Is he right-handed, left-handed, or ambidextrous?
Ambidextrous
Awesome video this guy is unreal!!! Hendrix who was right-handed he wrote ate and used telephone with right hand playing guitar was only thing he did with left hand. He'd play 10-12 hours day as lefty with tapes restrung but an hour or two he'd play without restring. He stayed with Ron Wood for couple weeks when first in England Nov 66 and Wood said he'd also switch guitar around and play righthanded!when jamming with other musicians who played.righthanded he'd politely ask to checkout their guitar and they'd ask him before he started to play "you have to restring that don't you Jimi?Hedreply Oh no it's cool man and then proceed to play some mindblowi g shit. He'd then hand guitar back and say thanks man! to a throughly mindblown dude who could hardly believe what he'd seen and heard! R
He was actually born left-handed, but, like many during his time, was taught to be right-handed.
G'day lads, that 254 12 string i recently bought from you is AWESOME! Set up was great, nothing to do but play! Double necks are impossible to find for us sinestrals, so i built my own out of a Cozart double as the starting point. My luthier Scott Supak did a great job of cleaning up the necks and frets, action is surprisingly good. Did the electronics myself, but the highlight is the pick ups, from a bloke named Bryan Williams, he gets extremely close to Gods MSG tone, that crystalline hollow tone in the middle position, even better than this one here! Guess you enforced the forbidden riff rule on this one eh! Anyway many thanks for an awesome Taylor 12 string, you blokes were great!
jimmy is a gift from God.
Magnificent ❤ 🎸
My idea of heaven 😍
❤❤❤❤🎉❤🎉❤❤🎉❤🎉🎉❤❤
A close up of the bass wall please!
😊 I'm a lefty I have nine guitars thank God there not any of these price guitars and they sound every bid of good than those guitars I been singing and playing guitar over 50 years I can fix them also
very nice.
The SG please!!!
I love you Southpaw guitars!!!!!
Вот он земной рай!
