I have a left-handed Telecaster. I've always wanted a lefty Esquire, but as far as buying one outright from Fender, or even finding a used one on the Internet, well... kind of goes without saying that they're pretty much non-existent. I've seen a picture or two on the Internet of a lefty Esquire, but none have I found that are for sale. Even if I were to ever happen upon one I'm sure it would be way out of my price range, so I figured I'd just hunker down and do it myself.

I just don't have a starting point to guide me through this process. If anyone knows of any websites or books that will help me that would be of great assistance. And does anybody know where I can get a left-handed Esquire pickguard made?

Thanks so much!
Welcome !!!

Drop me a PM with your address and I'll send out a 3k3 carbon comp resistor and 3 .047uf orange drop caps so you can do the electronic conversion...

Glad to have ya here on the site...Esquires are wonderful things !
