I think that photo image is reversed- the faces look odd, and if that is Bruce's Martin electric acoustic, it wouldn't be left handed...

Unless Mr Forsyth is merely holding it the wrong way round?
Looking closely, the strings (E, A, D etc..) appear to be in the right place, which, without wanting to confuse myself, or anybody else for that matter, would make sense if he's holding the guitar that way; i.e. upside down, and the wrong way round.
I think.
I'm a drummer!

The picture is reversed, all their jackets button the wrong way!

Being left handed myself it annoys me to see pictures of know right handed guitarists with their picture(s) reversed in magazines etc. Either to fit the page or (more often than not) the editor dosen't know any different!

There's a number of Shads photos of the Rostill line-up that are printed back to front.

As I said on another thread recently, those suits are back in fashion again....

That electric Martin acoustic of Bruce's is quite a rare guitar...they also did a two pickup dreadnaught bodied model, both guitars using DeArmond pickups.
