Wow, that's an option??
I have a bass w/ a reverse headstock; besides the "cool factor" I've had builders tell me that it offers a better "pull" on the strings.

Maybe; but it sure does look bad-azz, and on a G&L, I think its the bomb!

Yes, that is an option. See: July 1, 2015-present G&L U.S. Specifications and Options.

Thanks Craig, good to know.
(Now I gotta YEARN for another G&L bass, say an SB-1 with many options, including a Reverse H/S)

THAT would be nice...
:crazy:

Except the G&L logo would be upside down. ;)

And, here's some that were made this year: 2016 Factory Photos of Left-Handed instruments.
