Looks like Ric did a run of lefties at the end of last year, and this is the last one, unless someone has seen others.

Is that price a little high or is there a big lefty upcharge?

Well the price is quite high, but that's been around the going rate for those. Those really look cool.

I never bothered to notice this before, but the upper horn appears to be slightly longer and narrower than earlier Ricks. (See the link for the 1981 Rick for sale). I'm noticing that it starts right around the top of the 13th fret, whereas the horn on the '81 begins around the top of the 14th fret. And the '81 has a thicker horn. Did Rick revise the horn at some point in their production I wasn't aware of?

$2200 is the top end of the range.

Looking at four lefties sold on Ebay:

$2200
$2000
$1700
less than $1700

I'm pretty sure Guitar Showcase still has a FG; I think they're asking $1800.
