I wasn't aware that Ampeg was making lefties of these. Would like to see more photos.

Don't recall seeing a pickguard on these before. Is that custom made? Looks good though...

nope, they all have pickguards. the woodgrain was supposed to be funny in contrast to the acrylic body.

from what i've been told, it's one of two lefties made.

Whoa, that's cool. What does this thing sound like? And what year is it?

I've had it for about 1.5 years, got it new.

It kinda sounds like a Music Man, but more "vintage-y", whatever that means.

Better pics, sort of. It's tricky trying to get pics of a clear bass.
