I thought I'd share these photos of a rare left-handed F4 that sold here in New Zealand 3 years back.
It was me bidding against another guy - I wanted to buy on spec (I'm right handed) with the possibility of trading it to the USA for a nice right-hand instrument. The other guy was a local musician wanting to buy it for his son who is a left-handed trad player who plays in Irish/Celtic bands. He was the right guy to win the auction, and I passed at about US$2000.
Anyway, here are some photos, since we can't send them to the Mandolin Archive anymore.
Note: the previous owner had it strung right-handed!
