Very cool. Did you get that at Taniguchi-Gakki? I know Burny makes quality stuff, at least when it comes to Les Pauls. Are lefties readily available over there?

The only lefty V basses I've seen are the Gaskells out of Australia (which have the Gibson hockey stick headstock that I personally think looks dumb on this bass) and the Davison V that I bought on ebay a few years ago, which is a full long scale bass. The thing is HUGE.

yeah thats the place and i got the last one made.
there is a heap of lefty stuff over there and so far easy to deal with and quick with correspondence
i doubt there can be many lefties of these out there .
I was going to post a thread about it before buying but i didnt want one of you guys getting in first :mrgreen:

Have you ordered from them before? How's their English? i didn't know they shipped to the US. I like that Danelectro Longhorn bass they have.

i havent ordered before. English is ok and few words dont translate very well but overall no problem
very quick to post and they have sent me a few pics of the bass at different stages of packing, which was kind.
Now its on its way with tracking

Bugsy, where in Australia? I'm here in Brisbane, on my last night, after having spent a week here, and five days in Byron Bay for the 25th annual Bluesfest. Had such a good time, and seeing Jeff Beck was the higlight, with Ronda Smith playing bass! I intend to start a thread when back on Oahu, showing you all pics, and sharing brief stories about it.... but I had Such a Great Time!

here it is.
very quick delivery and very happy.
light, no neck dive and sits well strapped on. sitting is a problem.
the neck tapers off smaller at the nut and the bridge has plenty of adjustment to play with
Not as deep as the Gibson SG bass but the humbuckers still pack a punch
I like how it is brighter but I think i may put steels on it just the same
Burny by Fernandez , shipped with a gig bag, small cord and booklet all in Japaneses, the only bit of english is the cover.
production now stopped i believe.
