The Left Handed Gibson Guitars Were Inspired By The Greatest Guitarists and Their Instruments
The Left Handed Gibson Shop series has drawn considerable attention from players due to the unconventional artists that are already represented. For instance, actor Kiefer Sutherland’s KS-336-based model, to regional guitar ace Johnny A.’s two uniquely styled hollowbodies. The Left Handed Gibson stands by its decisions with pride, choosing artists with passion and a good ear to make unique guitars.
The “Inspired By” Left Handed Gibson guitars differ from the standard signature guitars in their extreme limited release. While some artists, like Zakk Wylde and Peter Frampton have both signature and Inspired By guitars, the Inspired By guitar is limited to 300 pieces, after which it is put away forever, while the Signature Series are meant to be able to be reproduced for years to come.”
Some of the Inspired By Left Handed Gibson guitars reflect the exact representation of a specific guitar, as in the case of the Jimi Hendrix 1967 Flying V, the first guitar in the Inspired By line. Released in 2006, it was an exact recreation of Jimi’s hand-painted V, used during The Experience’s ‘67-‘68 tour of Europe. Others are built to the specifications of the artist – taking into account their needs and modifications desired to build their dream guitar.
An example of this is the Peter Frampton Les Paul Special, which adds a third P-90 to the traditional design, as well as a Tune-o-matic bridge and slim taper neck profile – features not typically associated with Specials.
While Left Handed Gibson Shop never claims that it can predict who it will feature next, it did share its next Inspired By model: the John Lennon Les Paul, based on the modified Les Paul Junior that John played during his Madison Square Garden performance in 1972.

Rock Star $8.45 More than merely a headbanger’s take on A Star Is Born, Rock Star is, like all great Hollywood middlebrow fare, actually “inspired by a true story”: the saga of an Ohio salesman/Judas Priest tribute band vocalist who one day found himself taking Rob Halford’s place in the spotlight. But whether its music is big-hair throwback or merely ahead-of-the-curve ’80s retro-hip is hardly a matter that will… |

1919 * Eternal $12.62 Prepare yourself for the ultimate statement from the premiere rock guitarist of our generation. Zakk Wylde’s Black Label Society return with a spectacular new studio album, 1919 Eternal. An uncompromisingly heavy set of songs from Ozzy Osbourne’s favorite guitar-singer, this is the trio’s third album. 1919 Eternal was produced by Zakk himself, in conjunction with Black Label Society’s live sound engineer Eddie Mapp. Tracking took six weeks at Rumbo Recorders and Paramount Studios in Los Angeles. Not only is the result the most pleasing Black Label set to date, it also sees the band fine-tuning their sound. Hardcore fans will be thrilled by enormous bone-crunchers like Demise Of Sanity and Battering Ram along with the album’s first single Bleed For Me , but Wylde adds new tones to his riffing on the likes of Lords Of Destruction. The ballad Bridge To Cross only serves to highlight the diversity on display. Though he is indisputably one of the world’s last remaining rock star personalities, Zakk Wylde eschews self-promotion and indeed self-examination as much as possible. To him, 1919 Eternal is just the latest Black Label Society record. Take it or leave it. |
