Hey, the guys at Fender must have been thinking of us when they made this. I like it's a 32", but can't take those p.u.'s.... http://www.fender.com/it-IT/products/pawnshop/models.php?prodNo=0143502

Iome, you must get your finger slaps for not reading all the LB threads...we've been talking about it in the "American Standard With Maple Neck" thread...

Flip it over... it looks like it should have been lefty bass all along! Watched the demo - played with a pick it reminded me of the old Pink Floyd sound from "Meddle - One Of These Days"... great song here's a link - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k1665BxujmA - just in case some of you aren't familiar with the song....

That first riff he plays reminded me a little in tone and style to a less gnarly Cure's, "Fascination Street":

Lame demo by Fender, IMO. Doesn't even demonstrate the tonal differences in PUP switching.

All I'd say about this bass is if you have a sweet tooth for something along these lines get Rod to make you a Regenerate JAEbird.

It's be true lefty, look sexier and be a nicer bass.

Funny how the go to this extent to make a bass that looks like a lefty, but not offer it in a lefty version. Thanks Fender... :cry:
