Not listed as a lefty on the Schecter website that I can see yet, but the righty is available in three colors:

That is awesome! I see a mishmash of several Fenders styling cues all in one Bass. Cool.

They must've worked out a special run with Schecter maybe, no lefties in the current price list I have

Is that a Badass II copy? They just refer to it as "Schecter high mass bridge", but the resemblance is uncanny.

I contacted the supplier. They only provide the white Olympic colour for the lefty bass.
Looks good to me. I have ordered a copy, now I have to wait 12 to 16 weeks for the deliverance 8-)

Confirmed, it's real.
Looks like they snuck it in after NAMM, just got a new sheet with the model on it.
1443 if you're looking by the Schecter model #
