With DarkStars!

Haha, just saw yer response. I wonder what's up, the slant of the bridge on a T-Bird is what prevents me from getting one, IF I ever found a lefty.

They are lefty but with the strings upside down. Probably ordered by a lefthanded bassplayer who learned to play bass on a righthanded bass (upside down) without restringing.

Just take your own bass and (try to) play it left handed. That's exactly how these Stavem NR Tbirds are strung.
