A Left handed Archtop


 

Hi,
I have recently bought an Epiphone Dot left-handed, but am actually a bit
disapointed with it.

As i'm about to sell it to buy another guitar, i'd like to call for your advice
on the matter. My choice is quite limited, because:

1 - I'm left-handed;

2 - I Live in Portugal, i've got very few options in music stores; unless i
order it from the Internet;

3 - My budget for it is up to 600-700$, not more.


What i'd like is something similar to an ES-175 in shape, not, for instance
another 335 kind of model.

What do you suggest in terms of a) models and b) places to buy in the
Internet / music stores that sell on-line and can ship to Portugal ?

thanks and kind regards,

André Rodrigues

You might consider taking a look at or contacting Kurt at



He is very conscientious and quick to respond. He has had archtops on
his site don't know about now. These are chinese knockoffs. The
higher priced less pauls are highly regarded on the Les Paul forum.

Buying an Epiphone can be a lottery nowadays.

Some are good and others not so - depending upon
where they are made, I have seen real variation
in quality.

The better Epis were made by Samick so their guitars
are a better bet check out..
