Didn't know that Orange made basses. And definitely didn't know they made lefties either:

Yeah, probably not a very high end instrument, but I think it look cool. I'd buy it just for the color.

I think they look cool.

Thanks for the video link. Sounds pretty much like a P bass variation, but that body is much smaller than I thought it was. It almost looks like a travel bass. I have to believe this thing is prone to neck dive, unless that body weighs a ton.

I like it!
Neck dive is no big deal to me. But the weight is listed as 4kg. and that puts it over 8lbs. If it was hollowed out more like a Dano, would probably be closer to 6lbs. and I'd be seriously interested.
