basically I have a huge collection of righty Charvels because I can play them, but I'm looking for anything, anything made by Charvel/Jackson in lefty to supplement my couple leftys already. If you do see one, please NO Charvel 2b's I already have a pair of those.

here's what a 2b looks like for those who do not know:

more specifically a concert,fusion,eliminator 4 or 5string would work for me or anything made by Jackson that is not one of the above units.

thanks in advance,

Mike

oh I LOVE his description:
Heavy-metal style 4-string electric bass. << well I will agree with that :)

Volume, bass and treble controls for fine control of the sound <<< wrong, it is vol/bal/tone..lol

thanks saf...2 things wrong with that ----
#1 it is not on ebay USA, and #2 and most important, it is the same thing as my white one.
honestly I don't think Jackson made any leftys for production BEYOND the 2b series in 1988 :( :( :( :( :(

I guess someday I'll stop buying up all the rightys, sell off 10 of them, and spend 3grand for a custom lefty.

oh, and while I'm at it, this one is a BIGGER retard:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Charvel-B2-Japane ... 255c361b42

that is a 1987, not a 1983..they DIDN'T make the 2B ( not B2 ) in 1983 :lol: the serials he refers to do not apply to all the bolt-on units made in Japan.

Given their rarity, my advice is buy them from where you find them and refinish it if it's too close to one you already got.

it's not the color or hardware, it's the strings...
I know my quest for a lefty 5string Jackson is pretty much zero, but you just never know IF they did make a one-off for demo purposes, and someone still has it :)
I want a lefty version of this:

and it seems like the only way to get one is to have them make it, and right now, I'm just not prepared to spend 3grand...maybe someday :)
I figured they could have made a model for another country, not imported to the USA???...who knows....
