Lefthand Alembic Custom 5-string Solid Black (USA) Date of production: 1991 Do you know a bass player, who is not dreaming of a Alembic Series I or Series II bass? I think not. But this dream fails by the price of such a bass. And the lucky one, who keeps such an expensive bass with a value of a used car, don´t want to sell it any more. So I couldn´t resist, when this bass was offered in Finland. But if you think, to ship a bass within the European Union is not a problem, forget it! These Alembic Coustom bass was produced in 1991 and has a Series I body with Alembic Spoiler electronics. This bass is a monster. With its coustom case -the biggest one beside my Warwick Alien case- it is the heaviest unit I´ve evers seen.

Hofner Beatles Bass 500/1 lefty (Germany) Date of production: 1965 Serial No. -.- Old lefthanded Hofner Beatles Basses are rare. And if you find one, you have to pay a high price. This bass came in 2006 into my house, but without a pickgaurd. So I tried to order one from Hofner / Germany. I did all I can to get the right one. I send them pictures and measures of my bass, but after I got the 4th (!!!) wrong pickguard, I gave it up. It seems they have many different measures during all the Beatles Bass area. In 2007 I got the original pickguard from a very nice bassplayer of the USA! Thanks again! |

WEM (Watkins Electrc Music) The Rapier (England) Date of production: mid 60` Serial-No.: 127## This is a rare lefty from England. Oz, a friend of mine, bought it in England and has spent a lot of time for renovation work. Thank your very much Oz! WEM (Watkins Electric Music) is most famous for the "Copicat" echo, their PA systems (which powered all of the classic '60s British bands and festivals) and the "Dominator" amp. They also made guitars in England. The WEM Rapier was the second English-made solid-electric guitar to be marketed; the Dallas Tuxedo beat it to first place by just a few weeks. The Rapier Bass is rarer than the guitar, only about 10% of WEM guitars were lefties and the sky-blue colour is very uncommon (most were painted red). This bass (before Oz started renovation work), and another blue lefty (!) can be seen on this website: http://www.watkinsguitars.co.uk/basses.htm

Warwick "The Alien" (Germany) (The worldwide only lefty which was ever made!) Date of production: 1993 Serial-No.: J 43This is the only lefty Warwick "The Alien" worldwide. Only one of these Alien basses was made in Germany. The new Alien´s is build in far East. The pre owner told me, that Warwick has build this bass for a famous left bassplayer from England, but he never get it. I tried to get some more informations from Warwick, but (it´s a shame) it seams that they don´t give any informatons about there basses. This is one of the best sounding acustic bass I´ve ever heard. It has a 18 Volt aktive soundsystem from Lakewood (MK 2). This bass has cost me a lot of money and it´s one of my valuable basses. For example: The coustom made case costs 500$! I´ve found this discripion on internet: WARWICK ALIEN THE FIRST 101 ALIENS WERE MADE BY LAKEWOOD HANDMADE GUITARS AND ARE SOME OF THE
BEST ACOUSTIC BASS GUITARS MADE!!! THEY ARE VERY RARE NOW AND MOSTLY OWNED BY PRO STUDIO
PLAYERS. BEING HANDMADE AND RATHER LARGE THEY DO NOT TRAVEL WELL BECAUSE THEY NEED
CARE IN ALL THE CLIMATE CHANGES. THEY ARE HOWEVER WONDERFUL SOUNDING. MOST ELECTRIC
BASS GUITAR PLAYERS NEVER GET TO PLAY A GOOD HANDMADE ACOUSTIC BASS SO THEY REALLY
DO NOT KNOW WHAT THEY ARE MISSING. THE SOUND IS VERY UNIQUE, I OWN A NUMBER OF ACOUSTIC
BASSES AND THE WARWICK HAS A VERY SPECIAL TONE , KIND OF LIKE THE LOW END OF A CEMBELO
. I USE BRIGHT FLATS ON MY BASS BUT IT STILL HAS LOTS OF TWANG. THE WORKMANSHIP IS
GERMAN PERFECT THE LOOKS ARE TIMELESS. THE PRICE A STEAL, THESE BASSES ARE SELLING
FOR $4500 IN THE US VINTAGE MARKET AND GO FAST BECAUSE THEY ARE RARE. DO NOT CONFUSE
THEM WITH THE NEWER VERSION WHICH IS MADE OF PLYWOOD AND SOUNDWISE FAILS TO COME CLOSE
TO THE ORGINAL. THE PLYWOOD HOWEVER TRAVELS WELL. MY ALIEN IS ALSO LOUD ENOUGH TO PLAY
IN AN ACOUSTIC BAND WITH OUT AMPING. A GREAT RARE BASS. |

Fender Jazz Bass (USA) Date of production: 1976 We came from Bremen on 31-05-02 and wanted to take a snack
at the Musik Produktiv in Ibbenbüren / Germany. Then a short look into the "lefthand
department" and as quickly as possible back home! There it was! A 76´ Fender Jazz Bass, Made in USA! Natural!! In an excellent condition! What then has happened, I can´t really remind by myself. All things that happend after this first sight, Sigi had to tell me afterward. I was so "drunken" from this moment on! Since it is a second-hand instrument, only cash was announced. I paid a deposit and made thought about how I can get the remaining money from. (Of course! You will find almost such bargains, when you have no money next time!) One week later I´ve been able to free the Jazz Bass from the claws of the MP. This bass is in a very good condition. You can recognise that a guitar player has played this bass only a few times (Pre-owner: "Kuddel", from the German Rockband "Die Toten Hosen". No damages, no scratches! This Jazz bass sound bright and clear. (You know that rosewood necks let the bass sound much powerfull.) I think a good bassplayer will let this Jazz Bass sound like Marcus Miller. |

Fender Jazz Bass fretless (MIJ) Date of production: 1984 In September 2001 I´ve got an offer from Rob Swanson about this bass.

He was looking for a lefthand Ibanez bass which was offered here. That was the beginning for a deal between 3 lefties from the USA and Germany. Mike from Salt Lake City sent the money for his new bass to Rob - Rob sent his Fender bass to Germany and I sent Mike´s bass to Salt Lake City. The deal was perfect. This Jazz Bass is wonderful to play. He sounds like a double bass. This professional work by the philadelphia luthier makes to play this bass much easier than fretless basses without linies. |

Vester Maniac 1335 EQLH
Thanks to world-wide-web I got this Vester bass for relatively little money. By chance I saw this 5string and couldn´t resist.

Wotan Bass 4 string If music is your big passion one is bolting down journals, catalogues and other information sources. because there isn't enough money most of he dream equipment is staying a wish.

That's what i have done with the Wotan Bass. In the 80s I read all about it and dreamed about possessing one on my own. It took 20 years until the dream came true.

Hohner PJ Bass
I often found the Vester Bass in the room of my son, so I need to change my intention.
Through contacts to other left hand bassists, I got the idea to collect autographs
on the Vester Bass of the LH bassists I`ll meet myself. As the Vester Bass was not
at my disposal, I need a new one. At that time the offer of the Hohner Bass was ok
for me. I`ll hope many Lefty`s would perpetuate themselves. The first meetings are
already planned. |

There are bodystyles which have made history like the Gibson Flying V. Gibson started the production of the Flying V in 1958 and it is continued. Only the Flying V bass was built for a very short time (late 1981-1982!).This rare bass was built in Kalamazoo / USA. He has a mahogany body and a maple neck guled into the body´s neck pocket. 2 Gibson humbucking pickups. Gibson told me that this bass was never produced for lefthanded bassists! So I had to buy this one. Gibson only produced 375 Flying V basses!!! |

Gibson "Flying V" Bass
Mhhh? What do you do, when you got an offer about a Gibson Flying V in Alpine White? Mind and original condition? Offered in your own country? For a more than reasonable price? Do you close your eyes???? I think you don´t! That´s the reason for my second Flying "V" bass. |

Fender Precision Bass (USA)
This bass was bought in the USA again. It´has a normal weight (that´s not sure for Fender bass from this gereration) and sounds punchy! It´s a very nice bass and a great player. It´s in a mind condition, except two small cracks in his varnish like my 78 Jass Bass. Colour: natural |

Dynacord "Thin-Body-Bass" (Righthanded Bass) Date of production: This was my first bass and I was forced to sell it for my 64´Fender Precicion bass in 1974. I was looking for such a bass since than. In December 2005 I got a message that such a bass guitar was offered in internet. This Dynacord hollowbody bass seams to be used very hard. So two pot knobs are missing and the 3way switch is broken. If anyone could help me to find such replacement parts, I would be very grateful. |

Fender Stratocaster (USA)
I don`t know why, as I read the advertisement of this Fender, it didn`t grab me. It always been my desire to possess a "genuine" Strat. It is in mind condition, apart from petty damages of varnish nearby the rear straplock. Together with a Marshall-Combo it does good work. |
