Lefty BachBirds

Iome · January 24, 2010, 02:10:54 PM

I'm starting a new topic on this to make it shorter than the old one.
I guess you have seen the new birds from Bach in the Bachbird topic http://bassoutpost.com/index.php?topic=434.1350
Should we give it a try, listing who's really interested?

I'm in for one.

It sounds like they might already be developing one. I think it was Rob that mentioned it in the other thread. That'll be cool if they do. All you lefties will have a new toy!

Ah, here it is:

BaCH told me they're working on a lefty batch.

I just need to know one thing. Is the bridge mounted straight or at an angle?

Iome · January 25, 2010, 09:05:09 AM

i think you better ask in the other Bachbird topic....

Looks like the bridge is not at an angle. I doubt they'd change that for the lefty (like that little photoshop there).

IF the bridge is NOT angled, I'm in.

The bridges are not angled in the righthanded series. It is very likely the lefties will be the same.
The bridge is wider than the original Gibson bridge. It allows for enough saddle travel to set proper intonation.
(THANX TO SCOTT FROM WHOM THEY STOLE THAT IDEA)

I'm giving up, we are far from being 20 lefties interested and those who may be in wants to know what the price of the first run will be and Roman ain't talling me after several mails and he would also like to know what colors we want by this week, never gonna make it.... $:-\$

I'm in for a lefty with righty controls and would imagine some other people might be too. Or even no controls.

How you would call that? A non-non-reverse?

Basshappi · January 26, 2010, 02:47:49 PM

Like I said on the other board, I'm in.

Ah, I see, the Greek is on leave from his new missus! How was the honeymoon?
