Lefty Hipshot Extender

[Nodd]

Hi All, I'm thinking of adding a Hipshot drop D extender to my lefty 75 P.

It looks like its the BT2, am i right in concluding that it should be a 'treble side' key for lefty?

Is that all I have to know?

Thanks for any input.

Yes, treble side is what you need. Get in touch with Hipshot customer services to confirm. They are prompt and very helpful in my experience.

I don't quite understand the question but I have a lefty hipshot D tuner on my Mexican jazz. The only issue was that the tech needed to grind away some of the side of it to make it fit next to the other tuners.

There's a lefty BT2 for sale in the Netherlands, the guy accidentally ordered the wrong version. It's not cheap, but he's been trying to sell it for quite a while now so he may be willing to negotiate.

There are different fitments of Hipshot to match the tuners on your bass. The BT2 is a fitment for vintage Fenders. I have a spare lefty (treble) BT7 that I had on a Squier - perfect for a Mexican Fender. I also have a Hipshot on my Spector.

I’m looking to get one for my Stingray - I need a BT1 for that!
