Used lefty Japanese Jackson (is it possible to find??)

Post by Jetrel »

Hi, guys!
After about a month or two, I will have money to buy a bass. And I very much would like to buy a used Japanese lefty Jackson (Professional or Grover/Stars series) with body type "Kelly" or "Randy Rhoads". Somehow, I feel unexplained sympathy for the basses of this company :)
My searches in internet (e-bay, Japanese sites, our Russian sites and others...) have yielded no results. There is only righthanded Jackson basses.
So, tell me, is it possible to find what I'm searching? And if yes, then where do I need to search?

P.S. Sorry, if I had made any mistakes in the text (I know English very badly). :)
From Russia with love :-)

As far as I know, they only made lefthanded Kelly and Rhoads guitars (the KE-3 and the RR-3) but not basses. Only USA-made instruments built to custom order.

Oh, I'm afraid that you're right... :cry:
Jackson doesn't care about left-handed bass players! :twisted:

Its probably no use to you but I used to have a Charvel 2B lefty these were under licence from Jackson I think. Cheaper but still good basses. Try a search for one of these. 3B was the top model ;)

Leftbass, thank you :)
I know about Charvel Dinky left-handed model, but it has only 32 inch scale :(
