I am not left handed, but its a similar impetus for me. It's a way to get an instrument that just would not otherwise exist...or that I would have had to have made. The two basses I play the most are like that. One is a P bass, but with a jazz profile neck and a super-light paulownia body. The other is an ES style bass, but with a Fender Jazz style neck.
That rocks! I have a J-bass and am obsessed with the neck profile compared to the P bass. I always thought the best of both worlds would be a P bass with J neck. Jealous!

Me too. I love the p-bass sound and simplicity, but my hand loves the J neck. Until this current bass, my favorite neck was on a G&L ASAT. Similar to a Jazz C but with a flatter radius. I have to say that the custom ordered PB J neck feels just a good.
Thanks! I'm really pleased and it sounds great.
That is awesome. My baby hands need the slimmer, faster necks haha.
+ similar for me. Also, getting an instrument I can afford!
