Here's one:

Jeff, that is one pretty looking bass......!

Not mine, Peter Levett has that one.

Peter Levett's is believed to be either the only, or one of only two 4005s made in leftie. Sorry to shatter dreams.

Peter has one, the other could become Greg's, if he looks hard enough and has enough to pay for it, I suppose.

Awesome find and great it's in the fold!

Beautiful, congrats!

Jeff,

If I had a "Yen" to find the other 4005 Lefty........I'd have to travel to Japan!!!!
Rickenbacker made TWO of these. Peter has one, and the other resides within a museum there.

I do however, have a SWEET 4001v63LH MG that I got from Peter.
