I spotted this one too. What's up with that neck width at the heel though? Looks like a pretty wide neck with wide string spacing. It's wide enough to accommodate 2 more strings.

There was a company called Wensen that was selling lefty fretless Parker bass copies on ebay a few years ago.

I think that's one of those Wensen fakes. Real Parker basses have much better string spacing, and I've never seen one in such an awful burst colour.

Did Parker ever make lefty models? As I recall, I was interested in Parker Fly basses, but don't remember if they actually built a lefty bass, much less a fretless... and not in the mood to do a Goog;e search at the moment...

I'm sure they must've made lefties. No company would be so foolish as to deny themselves such a lucrative market. ;)
