Not much, maybe £120ish for the guitar if you sold it.

Have a look on that 'well known auction site' for what you'd get second hand, you'll get less for trade-in.

Out of curiousity drewy, why are you selling/trading in your guitar? You only got that, what, a few months ago?

I got £220 for my left handed epiphone les paul standard on the internet, only one bid because i didn't want it going too low, seen as it cost about £500 about 3 years ago.

Left handed guitars are ridiculous, I spent all my money on it.

are left handed ones realy that much better for left handed people?

You should have it encoded in your DNA which you prefer. All you have to do, is play some air guitar. The way your instinct tells you to do it, is the way you should play.

Personally, i write with my left hand, but i do almost everything else right handed, including play the guitar.

Chances are you'll find it hard when you first pick up any guitar, whether it's left or right handed

To be honest if I were starting out I'd try my best with a right handed guitar first, maybe borrow someone's for a bit to try and pick up the basics. In terms of models available; lefties really seem to have it hard! Weirdos...

The MT's not worth much, but then you probably didn't pay much for it either? The Cube should be fairly sellable, especially at this time of year- though perhaps in the new year will be better, as people discover just how awful the amps in their starter boxes are.

The guitar could go any way, Ebay prices for guitars can be nuts. I sold my Strat for more than I paid for it, and my bass for about half of what I'd expected.

I sold my rather worn MT-2 for ~£45 on the 'Bay a few months ago, if yours is in decent condition you may be luckier..?
