Folks I just shipped Waymond McGee's new "Lefty" S10~3x4 to Moore OK.
Its a wonderful little black beauty, with 3x2
It was fun to build and I know Waymond will just love it. Here are some pictures of the guitar.

I'm pretty sure that Fred uses maple in his guitars...Fred it seems that seeing everything in reverse to make a guitar left handed would be a task,What was the hardest part of building this beaut?

Stu, your absolutely right, every steel guitar cabinet I build is made from hard rock maple.

Russell your mistaking the sealer surface (Multi Texter) much like Sho-Bud used for years, for some figment of your imagination.
Please,,, stop and think what your saying before you type. Shocked I feel embarrass for you.

Stu, the hardest thing about building a lefty is trying to dial it in, and tweeking it out. Lord knows I can't begin to play it. Laughing

Just wanted you to know, your baby has another good home! When I am able to purchase a new D10, I will look no further than a Justice Fred!
