Whilst the majority of pickups available from Radioshop are symmetrical in design (Telecaster, P90s, PAFs and our Bass pickups) and are therefore suitable for both left and right-handed players, all of our right hand specific staggered pickups (for Stratocaster) are easily orderable on this page with a left-handed stagger and are available at no extra cost – exactly how it should be! Feel free to browse and then order below for your left-handed guitar project in either pickups only or loaded pickguard configuration.
