Does Gretsch Make Left Handed Guitars?

Yes! Here’s a picture of one below.

Actually, at the time of writing, Gretsch makes fifteen different left handed models. That’s not too shabby!

August 2023 Update: Gretsch have recently announced a new left handed model; the G2622LH Streamliner, which is an updated version of the previous version still available. The new version includes brand new pickups, as well as coil splitting with the Master Volume control.

After checking out Duesenberg‘s range of left handed guitars, I thought I’d have a look at Gretsch Guitars.

Gretsch has quite a few models in their 2022 guitar range. Should we have a look at how many left handed Gretsch guitars there are this year? Of course we should!

I first heard of Gretsch when reading about the most expensive production guitar, which, at the time the book I was reading was written, was the White Falcon, an electric hollow-body guitar introduced in 1954 and created for that year’s NAMM show.

Now, around 30 years later, I still think it’s a fantastic guitar, and it’s great to see it still being sold to this day. Is there a left handed Gretsch White Falcon available? You’ll find out below!

If you’d rather, you can go straight to the guitars.

Otherwise, read on to find out a little more about Gretsch.

Who Are Gretsch Guitars?

Gretsch Falcon

The Gretsch company was founded in 1883 in Brooklyn, New York by a young German by the name of Friedrich Gretsch, not long after he’d arrived in the United States. Not bad for a 27-year-old immigrant!

At this time, he began making banjos, drums, and tambourines.

Unfortunately, 12 years later, disaster struck, and Friedrich died. He left his company to his teenage son Fred, who quickly learned the ropes and by 1916 his company had become one of America’s leading importers and manufacturers of musical instruments.

To grow the Gretsch company, Fred found out that there was a big market for guitars. What the public wants, the public gets! So Gretsch went into guitar manufacturing. First, acoustic archtops for jazz musicians, and a few flat-tops for country & western performers.

In 1942, Fred Gretsch, Sr. retired from the company and left it to his sons Fred Jr. and William.

Fred Jr. briefly managed the company before joining the Navy, leaving Bill Gretsch as president of the company until his death in 1948. It was then that Fred Jr. returned to run the company to great success.

During the ‘50s, Gretsch could boast outselling some of Fender’s new guitars, thanks partly to famous artists and endorsers like Chet Atkins, Eddie Cochran, and Duane Eddy.

Later in the ’60s, Beatles legend George Harrison was also known to play some Gretsch models, further boosting sales and awareness of the company.

In the late ’60s, Fred Gretsch decided to retire and sold the company to Baldwin Manufacturing, and from the late ’60s and through the ’70s, sales of Gretsch Guitars slumped, and the company shut down its production in the early ’80s.

Dinah and Fred Gretsch

By 1984, Fred W. Gretsch, the great-grandson of Gretsch Guitars’ founder, bought back the family company and sought to bring it back into favor.

They made a deal with Fender Musical Instruments Corp. in 2002 to manufacture and distribute their guitars and bring them to a wider audience.

What Do I Think of Gretsch Guitars?

Gretsch G6136-55 Vintage Select Edition '55 Falcon

As mentioned earlier, I first heard of Gretsch by reading about the most expensive guitar ever at the time, and when I actually saw some pictures of that guitar, I thought it looked beautiful, with its elegantly colored white finish along with the ornate gold hardware.

It was the definition of class!

Ever since then, I’ve wanted to own one of these beauties! Unfortunately, they’re quite a way out of my price range at the moment…

Other than the White Falcon, I later became a fan of the Duo Jet, primarily because I liked the UK band The Charlatans whose guitarist Mark Collins played one during the mid-to-late ’90s. Later, I’ve seen him play Gibson Les Pauls and Fender Telecasters though.

Different Types of Gretsch Guitars

Gretsch’s range of guitars come in several different types:

  • Solid Body
  • Center Block
  • Hollow Body
  • Bass
  • Acoustic
  • Folk & Bluegrass
  • Custom Shop

Left Handed Gretsch Acoustic Guitars

Unfortunately, at the moment, there are no left handed Gretsch acoustic guitars in production. Let’s hope they will become available in the near future.

Left Handed Gretsch Bass Guitars

Unfortunately, there are no left handed Gretsch bass guitars in production this year. Let’s hope they decide to make some in the near future.

Left Handed Gretsch Folk & Bluegrass Instruments

Again, there are no left handed Gretsch folk & bluegrass instruments in production at the moment. Hopefully there’ll be some available to lefties soon.

Final Thoughts

This year, Gretsch brings us lefty guitarists a good number of models.

Much like Duesenberg Guitars, Gretsch is thought of as a premium brand, and I think Gretsch should be commended for giving us a decent number of lefty models, even though they offer a hundred right handed instruments.

Sure, they don’t have as many left handed guitars as companies like ESP, Schecter, or Martin but it’s pretty good going.

Some guitar companies only have one or two lefty models. Hell, some don’t even have any! So it’s nice to know we are being considered.

What are your thoughts on Gretsch guitars? Do you own one? Do you want to own one? Let us know in the comments below.

15 Handsome Left Handed Gretsch Guitars 2023

    1. Hi there Jon,

      In terms of Gretsch guitars, there doesn’t seem to be any guitars with bouts that small, most Gretsch guitars seem to be around 18″.

      There are other brands with narrower bodies:
      The Duesenberg Starplayer TV has a 13 1/2″ bout, but is pretty expensive (affiliate link)

      Ibanez Semi-Hollow guitars are approx. 15 3/4″ wide, so may be worth considering:
      Ibanez AS53L (affiliate link)
      Ibanez AF55L (affiliate link)

      You could try a thinline guitar; not strictly semi-hollow, but worth a look:
      Revelation TSS (affiliate link)
      Vintage V72 TL (affiliate link)

      Reverend 12-String Lefty, although I guess you don’t want to start on a 12-string (affiliate link)

      Unfortunately there doesn’t seem much out there in the way of smaller lefty semi-hollow guitars.

      Hope that’s of some help.
      Thanks for getting in touch,
      Chris

  1. Gretsch have always been pretty lefty-friendly. That alone makes them worth a look… Didn’t Malcolm Young of AC/DC play Gretsch for the longest time?
