oh and if there is such a thing as a lefty thunderbird please let me know...

 

gibson or epiphone doesn't really make lefty basses isn't it time to solve this problem? i think so....

Hi guys new member here,

I am a lefty, My first LH bass was a used late 60's EBO, which I did a straight trade for my upside down fender mustang bass loved the EBO because it was my first offical LH bass.

Prior to that 1964 - 1970 it was all RH turned upside down & I swore never again will I settle for a righty.

 

It is very frustrating because retailers don't seem to care about lefty's. if I can find a lefty it is always some crap bass (their loss)!

 

I currently have a 73 Ricky, 09 Fender Jazz, 09 Hofner Icon Beatles Bass (fun little bass)

& my guitars are Gretsch 62 re-issue country Gent, 09 Fender Strat usa, 86 Gibson Les Paul Studio. 09 Epi SG G400

all left handed!

[cool]

Word is that H.O.G. in Rochester is doing a limited run of Non Reverse Thunderbirds. A "reversed" non-reverse would be right side up, right? lol
