Just saw this on Ernie Ball's Instagram, and Jeff Schroeder (Smashing Pumpkins), seems to have a left handed, green finish and along with chrome selector, volume and tone knobs as well! I wonder if Music Man will ever lease an edition of this! It would be great for left handed players!

(See attached file for the pic).

I saw that, but I wasn't sure if it was left handed or if he was using the front facing camera on his phone.

In any case, LH St Vs seem like a perfect fit for the Vault, whenever that gets going again.

And yeah, I dig that aged Pelham Blue look.

Ahh, yes I see it now! *Insert facepalm* I don't know much about the player if they do play right or left handed lol. And I need glasses! Haha.

But that would be an amazing guitar if it was 100% left handed though!

It was actually flipped (as beej mentioned in the comments). I need new glasses bahaha lol!
And I also saw another one with a beautiful patterned flamed maple! The gold chrome and the black pickguard as well. It's a beauty and one of a kind.
(See attached image).

Anyways, yes it does look beautiful!

Very cools. It’s a shame left handed models aren’t offered, even if they were strictly order in advance only and there was an up charge. I know a lefty who covets my Cutlass and St Vincent.
I suppose you could always put a new nut in and string it backwards... control layout would be a git. Of course if you’ve got good scanning software and CAD and a domestic CNC (I have) you could recreate the body flipped. Expensive way to go about it though, but it is doable

Yeah I know! It's hard work. I guess the cheapest and the best way would be like some kind of "Paul McCartney" first guitar modification at this point. But I'm not left handed though.
Just a thought if Ernie Ball actually released these like along with Mariposas.

And yeah, the image has been flipped unfortunately.
