Is there a better left handed CF than the Blackbird Lucky 13?

Title says it all for shop talk, BUT...

If you have a LH L13 you're looking to part with, I would be extremely willing to talk business with you. I am really wanting one of these before it gets too cold and my traveling ceases for the year.

If you can't find a L13, you might be able to score a lefty Rainsong or CA. I think Emerald is a great choice too, but that will likely take a bit longer because I don't know if Alistair has made many (any).

Could you get a right-handed model and mod it? Cutting a new nut wouldn't be much of a big deal. I'm not sure how the bridge is mounted but if it can be removed, a new bridge and saddle could be done relatively easily.

I think I could with the earlier ones. They don't have a sound hole on the side.

Talk to Joe. He might have an old one still sitting around the shop that he'll modify to left then let go or he might be able to sell you a new one with a quick turn around.

Oh yes, forgot about the sound hole on the side! Hey, it's CF, cut another soundhole and have two!
