Nope, because they don't exist. That sticker is there with a reason  You can still see the pickguard screws on the wrong side of the strings. Still a very cool bass

I converted a blue one, in a similar manner- but with the controls lined up more like the righty positions...I filled the holes, and relocated the jack. I made up some blue lacquer and touched it up. And, yeah, you can see the old holes. Doing a re-top, or refinish would be going too far. I'm not entering any shows with it. I play it... and I love it. I spend my time doing repairs on much more expensive basses. These are inexpensive basses, and somewhat crudely made- even though these are actually more consistent that the originals! The point is, who cares about the esthetics- he did a great job converting it, and I can tell you...these basses are killer sounding instruments.

Yes and he described that in the listing so it seems legit, although I have no idea if the price is fair. |

Lefty Dano Longhorns were available for the Asian market a few years ago. Not sure if they're still available there or not anymore. |

Never saw one for sale anywhere here in the U.S.. I'd think they were probably decent. I have a Douglas Pisces lefty T-bass...quality overall is damn good for a $139.00 bass. |
