This one-off Perri Ink Memento built in California by Nick Perri is one of those weird "Is it left-handed or is it right-handed?" guitars. I'd imagine it was designed partially to confuse, but probably the aim was to invoke some of that Jimi Hendrix spirit into the instrument. Notice the reverse headstock logo which adds to the mirror image playfulness.
Perri isn't the first to have produced a reverse Strat-type guitar. Britain's John Birch guitars made a very similar model for Richie Blackmore, and the Fender Custom Shop have also produced similar instruments. Of course it's not as extreme a "reverse" design as the Dewey Decibel Flip-out guitar.
Currently listed on eBay with a Buy It Now price of $2,000 (was $4,000 new).
