Lefty NRBachbirds - need 20 southpaws to make it
« on: June 18, 2009, 01:05:41 AM »
Ok, now that the right handed Bachbirds are done and everybody are more than satisfied with them, i will, once again, try to find enough lefties to make a lefty Bachbird, i've already talked with Roman about it, a year or more ago, and he said it was no problem as long as there is a request for 20 or more basses. So spread the word and lets try, who's in?

I will I have an righty bachbird now, And i wish it was a lefty. We didn't have an colour option so mine is buttugly white. I'm in on the lefty as long it's not just white.

I'd prefer an natural mahogany color. I think we can get the same color options that the righties had. The problem is to reach the min. quote.

Hopefully there will be some interest from there as well. If any of you guys go to the link, bump it up with a comment if you please. I don't want to spam the thread, but I'm hoping we can get as much exposure there as possible.

I had never realised how differently shaped NR's were compared to "reverse" T'birds... very RD at one end and unique at the other...

Hmmm... I thnk you may have something there, George...

Good luck with the lefty hunt... if the cash was available I think I would go for one, too...

Yeah well that's the reason I'm countin' my pennies now.  :rolleyes:

That Z sure is AMAZING!

My Tokai T-bird Bass actually satisfies my Thunderbird needs I think.

Not only that but I've gotta come up with 3k for my Scroll bass soon...

I'll have my Scroll bass next week.  Bruce emailed me to let me know it's ready. And, it already has a little history behind it.  I got bumped up a notch when the person before me cancelled his order just as the bass was completed.
