Ernie Ball, if you can do this guitar lefty, could you do a Petrucci kthx!?

This is sexy, and gives me hope we'll see a lefty Petrucci guitar, probably 6-string only, but I still want one.

Carrion · 07-13-2007, 06:39 PM

Petrucci isn't left handed

I have a question for lefties, whenever I look at a lefty guitar it looks really odd and unplayable, is it like that for you guys with rightie guitars?

Drew · 07-13-2007, 07:05 PM

I've heard rumors they're toying with the idea, FWIW. And, i mean, Lukathur isn't a leftie either.

No plans of a lefty Petrucci.

The reason the Luke is available left handed, is because a lefty golfer made a considerable donation to the Ball Charity (Not positive on the charity name at the moment) and the Luke being offered as a lefty was a "Thanks" I guess you could say.

I believe the amount was something like $25k.

And really, they aren't desperate for guitars to build either. Their factory is staying pretty constant with work. They don't really have the time to put into designing a lefty petrucci. If someone forked over a good chunk of change, maybe. But they aren't going to do it just because of the current demand, because it isn't financially worth it.

Pauly · 07-13-2007, 07:23 PM

Someone get rich and put down 25K then, duh! For the good of the forum!

Also that finish is purrrrrrrrrrrrdy.

Scott · 07-13-2007, 07:24 PM

Hey, this was $25k US. So how about YOU put down the money UK-boy

Pauly · 07-13-2007, 07:33 PM

It would 'only' be about £12,500, I'll start saving.

Erm.... no they just like like 'normal' guitars, because I'm so used to seeing them. Having one on my lap and trying to play it is another matter though.

Or you could, y'know, become famous, get endorsed, and have all the customs you want

...I wish that'd happen to me

Scott · 07-13-2007, 11:09 PM

It's not really about 'me' getting a lefty petrucci, or lefty high end 7. I honestly, just want it available to the lefty masses.

Plus, EBMM isn't looking to add another signature at the moment
