Gold TonePaul Beard Signature Series Metal Body 6-String Guitar For Left Hand Players
1/6
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
The left-handed GRE pairs a thin steel body with a lipstick pickup for players moving between home practice and plugged-in playing. Unamplified, its steel body is described with a sweet acoustic character for playing at home. Connected to an amplifier, the pickup is positioned as the main voice of the instrument, supporting bottleneck blues as readily as precise fingerpicking. The brushed aluminium finish, maple neck, and ebony fingerboard complete its metal-body format.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Left-handed home practice where the thin steel body’s acoustic character is part of the experience.
- Plugged-in bottleneck blues or precision fingerpicking using the lipstick pickup.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Right-handed players; this is a left-handed model.
