Is it possible to reverse a bridge on a lefty so the whammy will be on the top?

SRV had a left handed bridge put in his #1. If I remember correctly it would take some routing and filling to be done properly.

Pay attention to the man behind the curtain. A classic case of H.A.S. in the early stages.

When the questions begin to concern themselves with Marshall Amps and the appropriate signal processors, the syndrome will be in full bloom.

The very last question will likely make reference to lighter fluid and matches.

Carry on!!

Doc :P

Or to put it another way, whether it is Hendrix or SRV you have on your mind, you need to purchase a big funky hat, fast.
