Here's one for lefties.

I'm left handed myself, but I learned to play right handed, but I always keep an eye out for good looking left handed basses and let other fellow right brained individuals know.
This looks good, Ruby left handed bass, looks to be in really good condition.

I want a right handed one like that with black trim

Well, Jeff this isn't exactly the same but here's a Burgundyglo '77 4001 in right hand on ebay too. The bass appears to have been really well cared for.

That '77 Burgundyglo 4001 is 5 digits away from the '77 Mapleglo 4001 I used to own!

Oh, to be debt-free right about now!!!

I love that Ruby bass. Ruby was one of their nicest colors. Wish I were left handed and had some cash.

I love it too, I've already sent out test feelers in front of the wife. She hit me where it hurt, with the old logic line. You've already got one of those and seven other types of basses, and three different bass amps!
I hate when she does that, the light of logic stings, oooohhhh!!! Go away from the light!!

It is nice, but I'm not a bass player. Maybe I should learn.

I don't know why you lefties haven't grabbed the awesome Ruby 4004cii lefty on Mike Park's website. It is truly very beautiful and if I were a lefty I would have bought it months ago but it is still there. PLEASE, someone buy that wonderful bass!

If it was a righty ... it would be mine ... and it would be converted to a 5 string ...

I told Mike that I would have bought it back in March if it was a righty. Oh well, it is a beautiful bass, nontheless, even if us "normals" can't play it, huh?

Big g, you've just got to convince your wife that G.A.S. just doesn't respond to logic. ( that line of reasoning hasn't worked with my wife yet, though)

Oh, harsh light of reality, it's what brings you home the morning after with hangover of life. Just wait, when I hit the lottery, then....

Sorry Jeff you're wrong!

If it were a righty it would have been mine a loooong time ago and it would be a 4 string!

I keep looking at that one wishing it would change over - hope is last to die!

Really, I can't believe this one has been around as long as it's been!

cheers!

What's a Loooong? Is that a bird of some kind?
