Today is International Left Handers Day—a moment for stepping back from our right-handed world to recognize and celebrate the special 10 percent of the population that strums with their other hand. We here at Reverb wanted to celebrate, too, and what better way than with a gallery of excellent gear?
Despite only making up such a small part of the overall population, countless left-handed legends have made names for themselves in the guitar world—Elizabeth Cotten, Paul McCartney, Jimi Hendrix, Kurt Cobain, and that's just barely scratching the surface. Inspired by these exceptional southpaw players and countless others, we scoured the pages of Reverb for the coolest lefty guitars available on the site right now.
Scroll below to check out the gallery, and click any of the pictures to learn more about the guitar. And remember, righties, you can always string them upside down.
