Just purchased a Fender Accessories Pro Series Precision Bass/Jazz Bass Case (Tweed), Fender Item ID: 099-6175-300.

At http://www.fender.com/products/fender-p ... bass-cases this product's description reads: "The universal interior allows for right or left handed P/J® bass models and is lined in soft black plush. The interior also has two accessory compartments and an extra wide neck support. Exterior features chrome hardware and two locking latches. "

Problem is, there's no way a left-handed MIM Jazz Bass will fit; the interior is not universal—its contoured cut-outs are moulded and padded specifically for a right-handed bass. On the thicker, bottom half, the body cutout is flat—matching the bottom of a right-handed instrument. The thinner top-half's cut-outs match a righty's string path and top hardware.

Anyone else experience this problem with a "universal interior" model case?

Was there a product feature change that never got updated in promotional copy on the Fender Web site, or is there some "old stock" still floating around that is being sold as the newer, "universal interior" model?

Apparently you got the old version.

You should seek out a G&G built one. The new cases are not getting exactly rave reviews.
