I need a left handed 12 string trapeze tailpiece!!!

[Memphis Blue]

Man...I went into Ardent last Friday to put some 12 string on a friends song and the stuff I could get away with live, I could not get away with in the studio.
This R tailpiece makes it practically IMPOSSIBLE to intone correctly...luckily I brought my 330 six string and put the jangle on it with that.

He was happy but he really wanted the 12 string...and so did I.
Any lefties out there know where these things are?

There is only one style trapeze. For 12 strings, you simply put two strings through each hole.

For a lefty, I believe you simply flip the tailpiece around. Both sides of it are chrome polished for this application.

Collin's right. Try pickofthericks.com to get one.

The guy at Pick said the back side is NOT polished like the front...but at this point I don't care what it looks like...as long as it's functional.
Thanks guys

Don't left-handed guitars use the same trapeze as rightys?

Switching a trapeze tailpiece for the R isn't going to help the intonation. If you want to intonate each string more accurately, you're better off buying a 12 saddle bridge.

Intonation is relative to string length between the nut and bridge saddle only. The string length from the saddle to the tailpiece slot is irrelevant, unless you're finding overtones that a dog can hear, or which are picked up and amplified by an effect that magnifies harmonics.

So, go ahead and use a righty trapeze.

So you are calling me a dog Paul? I can hear overtones............maybe that's why my dogs like me so much. As others have said flip it over that's all you need to do.

Excellent advice...you'd think after 45 years of playing guitar I'd have the physics part down by now.
Thanks everyone.
