Default R Taylor - LEFT HANDED - SOLD

I have to say this is my first love, however it is time to let her go. I had this guitar custom built in 2011 and it has been well-loved ever since. The smallest of blemishes and the greatest of care. Please see the photos. I want her to go to a good left-handed home!

Ok, a few more details at the encouragement of some new friends here and some cynics too.

You pay for shipping, but I’ll only charge you what it costs and I’ll send it as quickly or as slowly as you want.

Payment - certified check please. This is a terrific price for this guitar. I’d hate to give a portion of this to paypal.

I noticed that someone is already calling my integrity into question on leftyfrets and someone has defended me. I appreciate the defense and don’t quite understand the trashing but this is the internet. All is fair game I suppose.

Any questions, please do not hesitate to send my way.

$3500.00

You might want to call attention to the fact that this is a Braz guitar. Phenomenal price here.

Unfortunately while I'm technically a left, I play righty. GLWTS!

A 1 7/8 nut short scale Braz and Engelmann R Taylor style 2 for 3500?? Man do I wish I was a lefty. Almost worth sending it back to Taylor for a conversion.

In addition to the info listed on the build sheet, you may want to post:

Saddle spacing
If your price includes shipping and what form of payment you are accepting
Where the guitar would ship from
Any references for previous sales - with only 3 posts many will be interested in that!

Hi Fitness - this is my first sale so I have no track record whatsoever. That being said, I’m a pretty honest guy, so whomever purchases this will be pleased I hope.

If you can play left handed you ought to be giving this one some serious consideration.

Beautiful guitar! Just gorgeous!

Don't worry about online cynics - they are a penny a dozen. Just be forthright, be honest and all things will work out!

Some lefty is going to get a great guitar at a great price!

Good luck with your sale,

Gary
