	ban-joe says: 3/7/2011 2:22:55 PM Thanks, I'm right handed and played that way for years but I've been forced to switch due to what I think is focal dystonia in my right hand. I'm just getting back into playing so I sound like a complete beginner again. But each day a little improvement so it's all good. Plus I just picked up my lefty Stelling from Geoff's shop. He refretted & spruced it up some so I have a great incentive to practice. What a great instrument, I'm like a kid with a new toy. --cheers, Joe Any other lefty Stellings here? I understand they're pretty rare.
	slthames says: 3/7/2011 7:48:54 PM Hey Joe,what make and year is your Stelling?I had one a few years back.It was a whitestar with an arch top.I sent it to Elderly to sell and wished I never did that.I've been looking for it a couple of years.Steve
	ban-joe says: 3/8/2011 5:54:38 AM It's a bellflower, I think 1981- I'd have to check that. It's got the Cooperman rim and bound peghead. I got it on ebay 2 years ago, the prior owner had been in a bad car wreck and mangled his arm.
	ban-joe says: 3/8/2011 8:29:31 AM Correction: June 1986 Bellflower, #3070.
	slthames says: 3/9/2011 4:23:04 PM Ok Joe,well I'm still looking for the lost whitestar.I think it was a !987 model don't remember the number.
	ban-joe says: 3/9/2011 4:28:28 PM Not long after I bought my bellflower, another Stelling lefty showed up on Janet Davis's used instrument page. I think it was a Red Fox. It was there for a few weeks then sold. That was the only other Stelling lefty I'd seen. It was a good price too, just over 2K. happy hunting for your old friend. J.
