There is no way in the world a guitar with that provenance would ever be tampered with and have the strings reverted to right hand playing order. NEVER!

The scars on the back don’t match, aren’t even close honestly, to the historic footage of Jimi using that guitar either. I think it was just done for fun.
You were right. That guitar is now being called into question, not just by Paul Davids but others who watched the video stating it doesn't visually match up to the original.

It doesn't seem the video was done to intentionally fool anyone though. I wonder if Davids was fooled? Perhaps it will come out. I hope it was just a farce to gain subscribers and to promote the store. If so, I'll be unsubscribing to Davids' YouTube channel.
