Hi fellow bentonites,
I´m not sure if all of you left-handed players heard about it, but nappel has a voting going on for 5 new left-handed Harley Benton models, which thomann will actually build!
Check it out!

Thanks. I'm not much of a Facebooker but I'll vote. Honestly Lefties have been well looked after by Thomann to date - as long as you're not fussy about colour or finish choices. The lefty premium they added to guitar prices last year was a bit cheeky though and is the reason I managed to resist TE-90 gas.

Whilst this may be some what true for the guitar population (although I think they should make more), please consider the fact that the lefty bassists have basically no choice at all. I think at one of the 5 slots should go to a bass. Judging by comments over on TB, I think the PB-50 would be a perfect choice. So, if you have no personal preference, please take a moment to think about helping out the fat stringed friends on the left field!

No Facebook and not planning on joining just to vote on this one. Seeing that primarily guitars are getting votes I won't keep my hopes up too high they'll come up with a bass I would like to buy, the basses that are in the list are not something I'm really interested in. I would like to see a lefty PJ-5, a 5 string lefty PB-50 would be even nicer just to see something that's not even available right handed . OTOH, great initiative! Thanks nappel !

I would like to see a lefty PJ-5 You can add every bass/guitar you want, the choice really is yours. There only have to be enough others to vote for it.

I can't, no Facebook. That´s too bad, but I get it. I don´t use "social" media either, except forums like this one. Don´t you have a buddy with facebook you could bribe to do a vote for you?

My vote was between the PB-50 and the guitarbass thingy. I voted for the latter.

Well I guess its neither fish nor fowl. I have enough HB guitars and have the PB and JA basses so not looking for anything there. The Guitarbass is sufficiently different to interest me. Honestly though, what I'd really like is a lefty bouzouki

I do hope I won't regret it for the rest of my life but I made me a facebook account to vote for the PB-50. It looks like this one has a chance of succes at the moment! Only a few more votes and it has made it to the top 5. MartinB, click.
