Hey Pepiot,
Welcome to TalkBass! and the Lefty Union!
These are some nice basses. Can you ID them for us?
Hi Im a lefty , came across this site while researching for a 2nd bass.
I was one of those students that was encouraged to play righty.
Flipped the strings and the rest was history.
heres my C&P from the New Member thread
Hello from ontario canada.
been playing for 13 years
Guitar for 15 years.
Gear: Homemade Basswood body,
P style Dimarzio P'ups (forget the name, but on clearance at Geetar Centre) ,
Made the body in Grade 11 Woodshop class 12 years ago, and still playing it daily! I couldn't play a righty bass, so uncomfortable + the dam volume knob would slowly go to zero.
Bought a no name Korean made bass and stripped the parts for my homemade body.
Ripped the frets out 6 years ago with a steak knife, wood fillered in the grooves.
Flatwound strings
I love my bass.
Godin Guitar :best buying descion ever! Canadian company too!
Jamming with my band The Pocket Muu Muu's for 6 years.
Occasional open mic bass backing.
We Jam on,
Sublime
Bob Marley
Blackflag - yup play punk double time on a fretless with fingers, no pick
NOFX
Greenday
Slayer
CCR
Tom Petty
80's tunes
Ska
Thats all for now.
Thinking about getting a 2nd bass , a fretted version.
a SX Bass, read some rave reviews on them. After modding them.
Leftys unite! Need more selection on basses!

Hey, guys, if you come across any used lefty tuners, hit me up with a PM if you can. I appreciate it.
One of my friends is a lefty guitarist, and we've jammed a few times! We've thought about getting a band together, but just haven't found the time.
Ok. I didn't know what this was, but I'm a lefty that forced myself to play righty. So count me in too.
Heh... it's been a while since I checked this thread!
All those interested in joining, who haven't PM'ed me yet... I'll send a PM later to you to make it easier.

All right, I've updated the ranks!
We're up to 63 members. We're officially the largest organized group of bassists on TB!
We could start our own mafia

Count me in. 28 years pro. I just flip a right handed bass over. I don't restring it so the E is on the bottom. Left-handed and upside-down rocks!
