Thirty documented left-handed models, with practical pointers to help you build a shortlist.
Start with two or three models that suit the music you enjoy. Compare their fit and setup before choosing extra features.
These are research-based comparisons, not hands-on reviews or a live stock feed. Each model has a manufacturer or retailer source confirming the left-handed version. Specifications and availability were checked on 28 October 2026; check the exact variant with the seller before ordering. Source links below are ordinary links. Amazon paid links appear separately in our buying guides.
7 of 30 models. Size labels are starting points; try the actual guitar whenever you can.
Dreadnought body with a spruce top
Worth trying for: Players who want a traditional full-size acoustic to strum.
A dreadnought can feel deep under the picking arm; try it seated.
Ask the seller to confirm the left-handed version, setup, included accessories, delivery and return terms. No live price or availability is promised here.
Cutaway dreadnought with a spruce top
Worth trying for: A full-body acoustic option to compare with the non-cutaway D-120.
A cutaway helps access high frets; it does not shorten the reach to the first fret.
Ask the seller to confirm the left-handed version, setup, included accessories, delivery and return terms. No live price or availability is promised here.
Auditorium body, cutaway and solid okoume top
Worth trying for: Someone comparing an auditorium outline with a larger dreadnought.
Compare both bodies in the same chair. Smaller-looking photographs can be misleading.
Ask the seller to confirm the left-handed version, setup, included accessories, delivery and return terms. No live price or availability is promised here.
Mini travel body
Worth trying for: Travel practice and players who want to try a compact steel-string acoustic.
Compact bodies still need a comfortable setup. Check case size and sound in person.
Ask the seller to confirm the left-handed version, setup, included accessories, delivery and return terms. No live price or availability is promised here.
Parlour body
Worth trying for: A smaller-body alternative for relaxed seated practice.
A smaller body is not the same thing as a narrow neck; check both separately.
Ask the seller to confirm the left-handed version, setup, included accessories, delivery and return terms. No live price or availability is promised here.
Cutaway dreadnought with a solid spruce top
Worth trying for: A full-size acoustic shortlist where a solid top matters to the buyer.
Ask what the onboard connection includes and whether you actually need amplification.
Ask the seller to confirm the left-handed version, setup, included accessories, delivery and return terms. No live price or availability is promised here.
Traditional western body and solid spruce top
Worth trying for: A full-size acoustic shortlist for strumming and general practice.
The source is Yamaha USA. Confirm UK availability and try the full body size locally.
Ask the seller to confirm the left-handed version, setup, included accessories, delivery and return terms. No live price or availability is promised here.
More choices are not always more helpful. Compare two or three comfortable instruments, then read the whole-setup checklist.
