I don't think I've seen a lefty of one of these before. Japan market only?

I've also seen them at Andertons in the UK, but I can't recall seeing any in the states. Here is a link I use for checking their lefty bass inventory generally:

IMHO it makes Gibson look as a company trying to find an identity, not sure if this is it. Also I fully get products for foreign markets but with this bass why not sell in the states too?

Righties are and have been available in the US. Haven't seen any lefties.

Agreed+. Dull and unmemorable. I did like the EB basses though.
