discreet Posted June 14, 2015 Share Posted June 14, 2015 [b]Shergold Meteor Deluxe - Lefty![/b] [url="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Shergold-electric-guitar-/131535868383?"]http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Shergold-electric-guitar-/131535868383?[/url] My first post in the g**t*r section *worried look* but I thought someone of the sinister persuasion may be interested in this Shergold Meteor Deluxe - a fine 70s hand-crafted British vintage guitar, and a lefty, so of no Earthly use to me! I have an eBay search set up to alert me to all things Shergold and Hayman and this popped up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CamdenRob Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 I'd love one of those the right way round... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ancient Mariner Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 (edited) I had a righty in the 80s. Wanted to love it, but the pickups sounded bad and the maple fingerboard had a really sharp edge to it that gave me a sore left hand after an hour or so. Nostalgia isn't what it was. Replaced it with a Strat, and couldn't have been happier. Edited June 18, 2015 by Ancient Mariner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] I think my ideal Shergold would be a cheapo one that had already been butchered so I wouldn't feel bad about putting a decent set of pickups in it and sorting out any problems... It's entirly an aesthetic thing for me, I love the way they look. Edited June 19, 2015 by CamdenRob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ancient Mariner Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 And that is entirely reasonable - I feel the same about the Godin Radiator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
