I like that, nice touch. I was thinking of adding the classic Gibson ‘Custom Made’ black 3 ply plate below the bridge…bit of a squeeze though!

Really likeable once you loose the stock bridge and sort the drab paint job out (imho). Plus the pick-up offers a bit more range than you’d expect from a shorter scaled Gibbo. I’ve always loved the original Les Paul Jr. double cut form (especially in TV Yellow) so was chuffed that they did them left handed. Not horrifically priced new, so could be a bargain if you pick one up used.

Aerodyne anyone… https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Left-Handed-Fender-Aerodyne-Bass-/353799825230?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l6249&mkrid=710-127635-2958-0

Is there a left handed option ? Sorry !

Matt bought a pedal off me. Impeccable in all respects, a total credit to Basschat! Deal in confidence.

Jimmy bought a pedal from me - deal with confidence, another absolute credit to Basschat.

I can only echo what’s been said here - met up with Martin on several occasions wheeling and dealing, his description of a TM Stevens Warwick he’d owned had me in tears. My thoughts go out to his family and friends. Rest in peace my friend.

Loz purchased a pedal from myself, a pleasantly flawless experience from discussion to transaction. A top bloke and another credit to the Basschat community.

…and the chances of a Left Handed version ?!!!

Bought one of these back in 2018 mainly for use as a monitor. Was suitably impressed by the handling and abuse it was capable of dealing with so much so that I started to use it as my back line for small to medium gigs. Must mention that I’ve not gigged it with a 5 string, yet. Had the 108, I’m sure it’s great for guitar, monitoring and maybe quieter situations but even at home it strained under 4 string use. Swapped it for a used 112. Can even go stereo now… I tend to use mine upright (in conjunction with a mini speaker stand) in gig situations, so can be placed in the oddest of spaces thanks to the small footprint. Overall - it’s cheap, multi functional and leads to much fun buying up every preamp you can think of to pair it up with.

Pretty sure there are bargains out there to be had on eBay and Reverb, if you can circumnavigate their systems and get an ‘alternative’ offer in ! It never hurts to ask...

May not be the route you want to go down, but, there seem to be a couple of used semi acoustic lefties (Warwick Star Bass and an Epi JC) currently for sale via Arni’s Lefty Bass site ?

I did wrap a cheaper Jazz of mine using blind faith, a hairdryer, a blade and some cheap chrome wrap offcuts bought from eBay, all done on my kitchen floor. From a distance it looked pretty effective, on closer inspection it was obviously a bit rough as it was my first attempt at such a thing and was eventually let down by the quality of the bought material as it tarnished from sweat and general use - definitely not 3M. I’ve pics somewhere.

Martin bought a couple of straps off me. Martin is a straight up top fella on this forum. 15 pages of exemplary feedback attest to that. Here’s to 15 more !!! Ta.
