Hi guys,

A luthier is building the most ultimate, most beautifuul godlike lefty Bass IV for me! :D
I've been looking for a lefty bass IV for a while but it seems like the never were made right?
So this will be my first custom bass and man, I'm dreaming about it every night! haha :P

But today there was a setback. The Luthier cant find a lefty Bass VI/ Jazzmaster tremelo.

Does anyone here know where or how to get one?

Thanks!!

Plop

This is the kind of tremelo im talking about.
The body and pickguard will be ''the same'' as this guitar.
But Then Lefty and Bassy!!! :P

Didnt think about that tremelo yet, Sec-def.
Still the coolest solution/bridge would be an original one.
The luthier was talking about putting a Lefty bigsby on the Bass VI instead.
A bigsby is very nice, but not on a Bass VI/ jazzmaster shape! :)

I'm pretty sure every lefty Fender VI I've seen had a righty tremelo.

Yes, a righty tremelo it will probably become/be.
To bad because they do exist. lefty ones. For instance on
those Lefty Fender Japan Jazzmasters and on the Kurt Cobain signature Jaguar.
But they only exist behind closed Fender factory doors.

Try asking Darren Riley. He doesn't stock them left-handed, but he seems to be able to get any Fender part.
