Left Hand Bear is the UK's only acoustic instrument retailer selling exclusively left-handed instruments. Created by left-handed entrepreneur and singer/songwriter Simon Middleton, frontman of UK acoustic roots band The Proposition, Left Hand Bear sells a range of banjos and mandolins from the superb Goldtone brand in Titusville, Florida, plus a completely unique range of Left Hand Bear brand lefty guitars (the only complete range of exclusively left-handed acoustic guitars in the world!).Left Hand Bear was created specifically to serve the needs of the neglected lefty instrumentalist community: thought to number around 13% of musicians.
