How about making the Sidejack/Mosrite bass in 34″ too? I like the new 32″ but you’ve already stated all the reasons for wanting and for for making a 34″.

Would you consider making the Stormbird bass available left handed?
I want a bass in this style but find the Tokai take on this popular design to be very boring looking, not as funky as this.

The problem is simple. 5% of players – Bass and gutiar – are lefties. So, as we have to make at least 12 pcs of each item, I’d have to see at least 200+ right hand versions sell to be confident that I’d sell the 12 lefties… Or, you can go down this road: http://www.myrareguitars.com/eastwood-special-order-guitars-order-yours-today

The Non reverse Thunderbird and Magnatone Hurricane have alawys been at the top of my list of most desirable basses I would love to own, however my dilemma is I’m a lefty! I know you must have a bit of a soft spot for us lefties somewhere in your heart and I own every lefty issue base you’ve produced, including the Gretsch, Ampeg and Ovation copies. I’m begging you– PLEASE say you will do the Tbird and Hurricane in lefties as well? These are also designs that were never available left-handed,this is the kind of stuff we lefties love because we NEVER got a chance to enjoy them like right-handers did. And if you don’t do it no one will. What are your thoughts on this? I look forward to your response…

I would buy an excellent copy of the Gibson Les Paul Recorder bass. I own an original and love to play it but the plastic pickguard has cracked around the cable jack and it shorts all the time. I have not found any repair shop that can properly repair it. It is a great bass, 30″ scale, and does not sound muddy, and has great sustain, better than on my original P bass from 1962 (sans mute). Maybe you could make a copy with the cable jack routed through the body and not the pickguard?
