Lefty Jack Casady?

[bbl]

Hi All,

 

I'm a lefty bass player from the Bay Area (San Jose). Many of us lefties have been hearing rumors about lefty Jack Casady basses for quite some time. Then I read that Jim Rosenburg has made a lefty JC prototype for Joel Savell.

 

When will lefty JC's go into production? There's a group of lefties over at leftybassist.com who are just as anxious as I am about lefty JC's. If we can get, say, 5-10 buyers who can commit, can you do a limited run, at least?

 

(BTW, Jack is one my all-time favorite players - when I head to Jorma's Fur Peace Ranch next year, I'd like to bring my lefty JC with me.) :D/

 

How can we make this happen?

 

Thanks.

 

Geoff

What Epiphone, Gibson and other companies don't realize is that lefties as well as being very few are also impulse buyers in the sense that if they see something in a lefty model, they tend to snatch it up right away because they know there's a 99.9% chance that they may not see it again, due to how rare it is. IMHO it would behoove these companies to make more than 3 lefties. I've been gassing for a Thunderbird badly for so long and I'm gonna either have to get a Tokai version or have a Luthier build me one and lets face it, it will sound better than anything coming out of either company's factories.
