1990 lefty Comanche

Early this week I got the chance to strum a 1990 Signature Comanche. I am a righty so I did not really play it. Beautiful ,tight grained
ash body with a maple board. This guitar is interesting.

If I can figure out how to post pictures I will.

For posting photos see: Tutorial: Posting photos.
If that does not help, send me the photo and I will post it for you.

Looking forward to seeing this rare Comanche.

The warranty card says Comanche Cust. It has a leo Signature on the bout. I have other cool lefties that I cannot play as well like the Marquis,Broadcaster Cavalier etc. Curse you G&L for making these backwards guitars!

Sure could use those sales logs,

I've seen a couple too. Jerry's had one for sale about 2 years ago.

I can't believe they "streeted" these. Lefty Z-Coils would open up whole new rev streams(pickups in the store & all Z-Coil-fitted models).


Cheers,

Where is the guitar? I'd like to see it, being a lefty.

That Comanche is here in Chicago.

Oohhhhhhhhh now you have my interest. Let's see it!!

Where in Chicago is the guitar?

Oh yes, pics please...

Something, Anything. Us lefties are jonesing for a lefty Comanche. Seriously.

Ha! Where could it be? Well, I'm tired of waiting.

So, I'm having a Z-Coil converted to lefty. It will look similar to the Espada pickup... but left-handed.

My first one will be a "Bluesboy", but with the Z-Coil in the neck position.

I thought that this process would be fun, however, 'tis not.

Craig,

I will take you up on that offer. That Comanche was dug out today and photographed for your viewing pleasure. What email address do I send it to. I sent a message (email)
through this site, please check and respond.

I think the CLF Research Espada model will be available as a lefty model, but have not got confirmation yet.

What issues have you run into with your conversion?

Not sure if you have seen this post: Under the cover: Z-coil pickup

Thank you Craig

Whoa! Dig that pic! There's a lot of switches on that thing!

Craig - I’m having an electronics company in Minneapolis do the job. We’re aware of the potential pitfalls. If a correct Z Espada becomes available, I’ll certainly consider one. Now, let’s see who gets a lefty made first!

Thx.

Wow, that lefty VI is a rare one indeed. Nice guitar for a lefty.
