Reverse Reverse ? Greco T Bird on evil bay
« on: January 27, 2014, 03:21:59 PM »
I have never seen one like this before, not a non reverse but a left handed reverse body?

 They are are a bit rare, tho I have seen a few come up. Can't say I ever wanted one, but Greco pups are the $&^*.

The Nikki fan in me always wanted one of those. But not at that price.

I nominate this as a "Flea Flicker" bass.

In football, when you reverse a reverse it's either a flea flicker or a double reverse.  I like the former term better.
