They made plexi TRCs and vintage cases standard with lefty models, why not a trapeze? I like your thinking, Colin... :twisted:
Or lefty Accents. My first Rick was a lefty 335 back in 1990. I'm still kicking myself for selling it! :(

Winfield produces a harp tailpiece without the "R" in both a righ and left hand version. Just another option . link
