Albert Lee.....the moaning starts here!!

Fair point......though I guess your JP6 ownership is due to repeated requests (begging??) that convinced the big man it would be financially viable.

I'm sure that for the Lefty AL the numbers aren't there & it is much less financially viable so I apologise if I've crossed the line between humour & tedium.
As I said in earlier posts, I remain very grateful to EBMM for their support of lefty players

Actually there were a few requests not so much incessant whining but the kicker was when a forum member backed up Sterling and went toe-to-toe with a troll here on the forums. Sterling made a ruling "just for that I'm going to make lefty JPs, give us time"

So let's see if I've got this right.....if I create a "troll " identity......ie even more obnoxious than my real personality, and then argue with myself......I can have one????

Naaaaah, I'll stick with my original idea of getting so famous they'll beg to make one for me

Andy....I'm a lefty so it's not like I don't know how you feel, but you are bringing up the JP thing like it was just a matter of asking over and over and over again, and I don't think it was really like that as Pete illustrated above.

I think what you're asking for is for lightning to strike twice in the same place and I just don't see it happening. Remember...we don't know the cost and complexities of implementing such a move (Lefty AL's) and with what I assume little demand for a left handed version of the AL, it probably wouldn't make good business sense. I think BP has been more than generous with all of us over the years.

I think you're taking this a lot more seriously than I am ......I'm on holiday, I like those new AL colours and it seemed like a fun thing to talk about and flip some photos....I'm not for a moment suggesting I should have any input into a company's decisions and I probably DO appreciate the cost of making lefty guitars....I read a lot about it when PRS gave up doing them. It's just a "Wouldn't It Be Nice" type of thing......if it's tedious then I'll delete the thread
