These always struck me as one of the ugliest body designs ever made (looks like a leaf), but since they were never available lefty until now (due at MF 05/06) I thought it was worth mentioning. I have no clue what they sound/play like.

It also looks like MF will be carrying lefty Steinberger Spirit basses in June.

Whew, that's taking ugly to another level!

I'd be into getting a steiny spirit bass for leaving in the car trunk/office/wherever for a cheap bass that fits in smaller spaces.

I had a buddy who always left a Steinberger in his trunk, tucked up in a spot he made below the back widow where it couldn't be easily seen. He was a musician of local reknown and wherever he went to watch gigs if the band asked him to sit in he'd run out to his car and grab the Steinberger.

That's what I'm thinking about these Steinies too. Just sling it on your back or leave it in your trunk and you're good to go. I don't know how they compare to the graphite ones though, but I'm guessing they're much lighter.
