I'd be more than surprised if it fetches that price. But you never know.

Seller states " It’s super rare they weren’t released commercially and there are only 3 others that exist. "
I'm pretty sure I've seen more than that unless he means in that finish only.

I've been looking for one for a while and they are quite hard to find. But I'm pretty sure I know of 3 here on the board...or maybe I'm seeing the same one passed around like all our other basses :D

Either way, this price is very optimistic, but who knows.

I am with Paulo, I would think that there only a few lefties in that finish, not sure about 3 but you never know.

I contacted the seller and he said he bought this bass from Southpaw guitars and that they said that to him, not sure if that was just a salesman trick or what.
BTW pjmuck this is the same seller who I bought the Roadster that's with you now.

Holy! That’s a lot of money - I bought it’s twin new for ~1200cad. It was beautiful to look at but never got along with it - sold it to a board member
