The current crop of left handers in the UK are the best Fireglo's I have seen. Hats off to the team, these are superb.

I would not wish that on anyone. 
I've had a lifetime of finding cool *** guitars and not be able to buy or even play them.
Plus...it's the only thing I do left handed!
Weird innit?

Scotty - have you seen them close up? I'm interested to know how yellow the new inlays look in real life.

Mark, I have a few of the new 360's in assorted colours. The afg has 'aged' yellow/amber inlays & binding and looks stunning. The other colours (or at least the ones I have) all have very white inlays and regular binding.

Hi ya Peter, it's Jeff from Montreal. I just got my lefty 330 FG recently and she's a beauty. It took almost three years but it was well worth the wait! Pics to come in the near future. By the way, the 4001V63 is the sweetest bass I've ever played.

Thanks for the info Peter. The rosewood fretboard in the picture you included is lovely - iridescent like a close up of tanned skin. I'm not quite sure about the inlays, I was hoping for subtle Champagne aging rather than strong smokey Chardonnay

When you actually see them with your own eyes Mark, you will think that they are the dogs danglies!

Hi Jeff, great to see you here. You can't go wrong with a v63 . And a 330 makes the perfect partner for it!

AFG and BBR showing the different inlays...
Re: Makes me wish I was left handed...

Both very, very nice Peter. The BBR with FWI is TFDB
And once again the FG brings me deep joy. I'll take them both if you can just mirror fix the wongly upside down-ness of the neck and bodily mode.
