    Fodera vs. Elrick

    So as you can see, I'm a lefty and loyal Elrick player. I will admit, I have always been curious as to if Fodera craftsmanship is worth twice the price of what Rob builds. It's a pretty expensive gamble and their aren't a lot of lefty Foderas out there that I can try. What I hear from Fodera...

    Here's my family of lefty Elrick's. I've got a spot ready for my fourth- I'm thinking a 34" NJS 5 with holly top and pink ivory board or a 34" Evo 6 buckeye burl/spalted myrtley burl with maple neck and fingerboard.

    Elrick Owners Only!

    Do people still post here? I am a new Elrick owner and in the Fall of 2010, I welcomed my first Elrick Evo 5 Gold Series Lefty with an amazing Spalted Maple Burl Top. Just today I bought the only Lefty Evo Singlecut that Rob Elrick has ever built! I can't wait to pick it up in Austin next week...

    I'm about two months into my 4 month wait for my Evo 5 lefty. Just last week Rob let me pick my top which just made me drool that much more. I'm going with a gold series wenge neck, birds-eye maple fretboard and a spalted maple Burl top. it's gonna be sweet! Are there any other lefties in here?
