Teuffel : Left Handed Guitars

Teuffel (pronounced toy-fel) Guitars is a very unique German guitar company who build some of the most distinctive and quirky instruments you’re ever likely to see.  This boutique brand’s guitars could easily be classed as fine art and are generally favoured by more experimental musicians.

Teuffel produces a small range of boutique guitars, and one of them – the Tesla – is available in a left handed version. The Tesla comes in a few different design variations.

The Tesla is very much a guitar for those musicians who prefer to err on the more experimental side of music creation.  Teuffel wanted to create a modern guitar which paid homage to the days of old where guitars would emit uunwanted sounds due to technical flaws.

Through the Tesla you can recreate the sound of feedback from a pickup which hasn’t been wax-potted yet, or the hum that might arise from a loose solder joint.  The guitar features a variety of buttons, which when activated will recreate those sounds which were so prominent in times gone by.

Stagg : Left-Handed Guitars, Basses, Banjos and Mandolins

Stagg is a Belgium based musical instrument company, founded in 1995.  They produce a large number of affordable instruments and accessories, including guitars, basses, drums, pianos, banjos, mandolins and a variety of wind instruments.

Stagg churns out a hefty number of left-handed guitars and basses, but also produces a few harder to find left-handed niche instruments such as banjos and mandolins.  There should be something for everyone inside the Stagg catalogue, and their prices are well within almost anyone’s reach – good times!

Too many to list! Stagg produces an impressive range of 39 left-handed instruments, including electric guitars and basses, acoustic and classical guitars, banjos, mandolins.  The image above represents a small sample of the available left-handed instruments from Stagg, so be sure to check out their website for the full list (link below).

Stagg Music Website

The Stagg website displays left-handed options separately to their right-handed counterparts, making them fairly easy to spot.  However there is such a large number of products to sift through that it would be quite time consuming and tedious to flip through every page.

Luckily the site has a search function which you can use to throw up all of the left-handed products.  I’ve found that typing “lefthanded” (one word) in the search bar is the most reliable method.  Try it out and see if anything catches your eye.
