Bigsby Posted April 28, 2010 Report Share Posted April 28, 2010 If anyone's interested the Pacifica is still in the charity shop on Rosemount Place (the one near Esslemont Avenue).I'm OK for guitars but next time you're passing could you see if they have any nice second hand pants for sale? Skids aren't a problem, they'll go that way soon enough anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

girl anachronism Posted April 29, 2010 Report Share Posted April 29, 2010 Squire Jazz bass...Sorry to steer this slightly off topic, but are these any good? I'm thinking of picking up a bass to learn but I am reasonably clueless when it comes to basses. I've already been playing guitar for years. I noticed the Vintage Modified Jazz bass, it's one of the few that are available left-handed. I probably wouldn't want to do too much with it, just play at home and eventually maybe practice with some friends. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wouldn't be too tricky to switch a right hand bass to left though, I think. Just a new nut and fit a strap pin? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigsby Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 Classic Vibe ones are supposedly very good, don't know if they come in lefties though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
girl anachronism Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 Classic Vibe ones are supposedly very good, don't know if they come in lefties though.Yeah, they look lovely too, the sonic blue colour is tasty. Well, if it is possible to switch them to a left-handed configuration like Jan suggested, then I might just try to do that. I definitely amn't competent or confident enough to try that myself but if there's somewhere that could do it at a reasonable price then I reckon I'd be sold. (Maybe that all-knowing guitar tech from ShutterSpeed could take a look at it for me.) Alternatively, I was thinking of taking a few lessons anyway, I wonder if I could train myself to play right handed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigsby Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 Personally I think the whole upside down guitar thing isn't worth the hassle, especially on a bass. Yes, in theory you just need to change the nut but in practice it's really not going to be very comfy to play at all. Unless you do a Macca and get a violin bass.

girl anachronism Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 Yeah, think I might be opting for this one in that case:Squier Vintage Modified Jazz Bass Guitar Left Hand, Natural | DV247 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
