why are there no Fender Jazz or Jags for lefties? I've searched but could not find any. Can anyone explain this anomaly?

What Tanner said-there just isn't enough demant to warrant it.I imagine that the Custom Shop could do one for you but it would probably be very pricey as they would have to make one off metal parts for the switch plates and vibrato etc.BTW Jimi Hendrix played righty Jags and Jazzes by simply flipping them over.

Actually, all the parts already exist. As usual Fender Japan caters for lefthanders much better than the parent company. There are lefthanded Mustangs, Jaguars and Jazzmasters in the CIJ catalog.
