Hey Everyone, I'm purchasing a left handed p bass in a couple days and I'm looking to get a tweed or tolex case for it. I was wondering if those cases fit left handed basses as well or is there a specific way I have to order a left handed version because I haven't been able to find them on line. Thanks guys

The NEW style Fender "Pro Series" Tolex/tweed cases are said to be universal fit, meaning they are designed to fit both left and right handed Fender basses.

If looking at one of the G&G made cases then you'll for sure need a left handed case. There are still some of these around. Some sites may show the "Pro Series" case picture and state in the item description that it is the universal fit, but then ship you an old style G&G right hand only case. I've heard of that happening, so be careful and confirm what case they are shipping if ordering a "Pro Series" Fender universal fit case online.

I've never owned a "Pro Series" case so can't say for sure that it is true, but many say the G&G cases were better quality. If you can find a G&G made left handed case anywhere, I'd probably buy that one over the new "Pro Series" one based solely upon what I've heard.

The SKB OEM Fender injection molded cases are still listed in left and right handed versions but I think the G&G Tolex/Tweed cases are being phased out when current inventory is gone. There are probably some G&G cases around at local dealers. Also the SKB made plastic version with the TSA locks is a great case for the money.

There is a vendor on eBay that has three for sale, Fender SKB, $139.99. There is also a lefty black tolex version for $169.99.
