Incoming lefties Mr Levett...

Post by godber »

The Ric site is listing three basses as being sent to Rosetti in the UK

4003 LH JG w/LH VC*
4003 LH FG w/LH VC*
4003 LH MG w/LH VC*

Is that left handed vintage case?

I wonder if they have the new inlays?

I haven't seen a new Mapleglo anything in the UK for a long time.

Are these anything to do with you Peter?

The code for vintage case used to be UP. Could VC be Vintage Circuit?

I'm a bit slow today. These are nothing to do with me (yet). 8)

I guess I'm amazed Rosetti only ordered one of each. :shock:

VC= Vintage Case. The left-handed instruments wont fit in the other cases.

I have spoken to Rosetti, they offered me 13 lefty 4003 basses, 6 JG and 7 MG (but no FG). 8)

I had to have a lie down when told the price though. :shock:
