So would I. I hate to call you out but as Scott mentioned in a previous thread they don't exist for the rest of us lefties. It seems more likely that it is a RG7420L (still much sought after but not as good a trem in my opinion).

However if like Andre on Jemsite (he has the only RG1077XL lefty - it's just not fair) you have picked up something very rare I definitely want to have a look!

Yeah, apperanty the 1527 was available in japan for a year in '04. It isn't available anymore I dont think and they are rarer than the 7420L's

That's funny because I emailed someone at Ikebe Gakki about that (after seeing the reference on jemsite to a 1527L in Galaxy Black being made) and he said that it must be a typo and was a reference to the 1570. I got the impression that the Japanese think left handed people are more 'wrong' than the rest of the world as he indicated that people tend to be forced to play right handed. If he was in fact lying to me I REALLY want to see some pictures!!!!!

Indeed. If it is a 1527L, then it's rarer to see than Drew's alcohol blood count level being at 0%

You're right, you don't. I've found that after weighing my options It's going to have to be a custom build

Not Ebay, but still something VERY rare and hard to find

The one and only lefty JEM

Hmmmm .... Personally I say yuck. The 555 is the cheapo version - why didn't they make us a real Jem!!! (Inlay only up to the 12th fret??!? - Why??!!)

Also you didn't happen to notice the date that advert was posted did you! -"Monday March 8, 2004. 06:40 AM"

When it comes to a good axe choice for lefties, Ibanez SUCKS!!!!, especially in the 7 string department.

On the Q of a lefty 7 floating trem, Guitar Parts Depot have a lefty 7 Liscenced Floyd Rose available for $119.00?USD (Chrome) and $125.52 USD (Black)

I have spent the past 2 months constantly searching for a lefty 7 w/ a trem and it's been a complete joke and of course, I refuse to buy a left 7 without a remt because fixed bridges and string through bodies are crap, they don't allow for as much creative freedom and I hate feeling cramped.

If I can get a parts supplier in the UK that has the balls and brains to order a lefty 7 floating trem for me, then I'll just buy the rest of the parts and build a guitar myself, with the help of my loal guitar tech , but if any of you guys know of anyone that is selling a lefty 7 w/ a floating trem, then I'll most certainly be interested

Take care everyone and peace always
