{"product_id":"dreadnought-body-left-handed","title":"Ibanez PF50L Left-Handed Dreadnought Acoustic Guitar Open Pore Natural","description":"\u003ch2\u003eA Full-Size Dreadnought Built for Left-Handed Players\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFinding a decent left-handed acoustic at a reasonable price shouldn't feel like a treasure hunt — and with the Ibanez PF50L, it doesn't have to. Part of Ibanez's PF Performance series, this dreadnought is built specifically for southpaw players right out of the box, no modifications needed. You get the full dreadnought experience: bold volume, a broad tonal range, and a silhouette that's been a staple of acoustic guitar design for decades.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe PF50L pairs a spruce top with meranti back and sides — a practical tonewood combination that produces a clear, projecting sound with solid mid-range warmth. The open-pore polyurethane finish across both body and neck keeps things feeling natural under your hands rather than sticky or heavily lacquered. For players who spend a lot of time working through chord changes or strumming out songs, that tactile comfort adds up quickly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhether you're just picking up your first acoustic or you want a no-fuss dreadnought for practice and casual playing, the PF50L checks the right boxes without asking you to spend a lot to get there.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eDreadnought Body — Big Sound in a Familiar Shape\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe dreadnought body shape is the most common acoustic guitar form for good reason: it delivers strong projection and a full low-end that fills a room. The PF50L's spruce top brings clarity and brightness to the mix, while the meranti back and sides contribute a warm, balanced response. Players often find this combination especially well-suited to strumming, where a strong fundamental and clear note separation both matter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe body is finished in open-pore polyurethane — a thin, matte coating that lets the wood surface remain more tactile than a high-gloss finish. The result is a guitar that feels slightly more like bare wood in your hands, which many players prefer for extended sessions. A red tortoise pickguard and black-and-white waterslide decal rosette round out the traditional dreadnought look.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eA Comfortable, Player-Friendly Neck\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe PF50L's meranti neck uses the PF profile — a standard, approachable shape that works well across a wide range of hand sizes. The 25.5-inch scale length and 1.65-inch nut width sit in familiar territory for most acoustic players. The neck joins the body at the 14th fret with a dovetail joint, which is the traditional construction for dreadnoughts and supports solid long-term stability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe nandu wood fretboard has a 10-inch radius and 20 frets marked with white dot inlays — straightforward and easy to navigate. Neck thickness runs 21mm at the first fret and 22mm at the seventh, which keeps things comfortable without feeling too thin or too chunky. The open-pore polyurethane neck finish matches the body for a consistent feel from headstock to heel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHardware That Keeps You Playing\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe PF50L uses chrome die-cast tuners with a 15:1 gear ratio — dependable machines that provide smooth, precise tuning. Down at the bridge, Ibanez Advantage bridge pins are designed with a bulb-shaped end that makes them easier to remove and reinsert than traditional pins, which means faster string changes when you need them. The nandu wood bridge and plastic compensated saddle complete the setup, keeping the guitar properly intonated up the neck.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe guitar ships with a standard set of strings (.012\/.016\/.024\/.032\/.042\/.053), which are a comfortable starting gauge for most acoustic playing styles and easy to find replacements for anywhere strings are sold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Features:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Shape:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dreadnought, left-handed orientation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTop:\u003c\/strong\u003e Spruce with open-pore polyurethane finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBack \u0026amp; Sides:\u003c\/strong\u003e Meranti\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNeck:\u003c\/strong\u003e Meranti with PF profile, open-pore polyurethane finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFretboard:\u003c\/strong\u003e Nandu wood, 10\" radius, 20 frets, white dot inlays\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScale Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 25.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNut Width:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.65 inches (42mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Joint:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dovetail at 14th fret\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBridge:\u003c\/strong\u003e Nandu wood with Ibanez Advantage bridge pins and plastic compensated saddle\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTuners:\u003c\/strong\u003e Chrome die-cast, 15:1 gear ratio\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Open-pore polyurethane (body and neck)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStrings:\u003c\/strong\u003e .012\/.016\/.024\/.032\/.042\/.053\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of Origin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Indonesia\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ibanez\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eModel:\u003c\/strong\u003e PF50L\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSKU:\u003c\/strong\u003e PF50LOPN\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e New\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSince 1872, C.A.
