Aha... I suspect this belongs/belonged to our very own forum member 'bigevilrobot'. I think that's the shop where he works.

These are very cool basses. Some of us lobbied to have lefties made for over a decade. I remember when they first came out, Jack's website announced that lefties were being offered, but it never came to be. I'd snatch one you while you still can.

Close but nope!
Traded-in by one of my regulars in town here. I just finished giving it a cleaning and setup.
Not my cup o' tea, but it's a nice feeling bass. Huge neck though

i didn't expect to like this bass as much as i do. I've never had good luck with hollow bodies, I just thought it would be cool eye candy. it turns out that its actually a killer bass.

They are certainly attractive basses.

Tough to find any other big assed hollow body basses like that.

Quite right! If these had been available 12 years ago I would have been all over them. Instead, at the time, I could only find Hagstrom (too modern sounding for what I was looking for), Ibanez (the ABG200, very pretty but its minihumbuckers also sounded fairly modern) and the Italia Torino bass - which I bought, and loved. Incidentally, it's back for sale again. This is the third owner, I was the first:
