Members jumpwin Posted June 5, 2011 Members Share Posted June 5, 2011 I've had my Epiphone Dot for a few months now, and only just noticed that it has Left handed knobs! I've never had a left handed guitar with left handed knobs! My Gibson LP has the pot wired in reverse, so they turn clockwise to raise the volume. On all my other guitars I have to turn them counter clockwise with knobs that don't match. This may seem such a small thing to right handed players, who no doubt take it for granted! But for me to see that I'm on 4,5 or even 8 is a revolution! Why has no one thought of left handed knobs before!? I can actually use my knobs without all the guess work!

Members PrawnHeed Posted June 5, 2011 Members Share Posted June 5, 2011 Just seems odd to me that you'd want the pots reversed in the first place. But I know something you do not know... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members jumpwin Posted June 5, 2011 Author Members Share Posted June 5, 2011 It's not odd. On a lefty the pots rotate a different way to the markings on the knob. Please tell, What do you know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Flatspotter Posted June 5, 2011 Members Share Posted June 5, 2011 Why don't you just swap the wires on your other guitars? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members jumpwin Posted June 5, 2011 Author Members Share Posted June 5, 2011 Swapping the wires would confuse the heck outta me! It's bad enough using the LP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
