Why's it called a reverse?

The Tuning pegs where on the other side of the head on the original design but they were changed for functionality.

Tuning keys reversed for greater functionality

...what?

What functionality is added by reversing the tuning pegs?

Looking at a guitar with tuning pegs on the back just doesn't seem right.

Natural looks the best, have fun with it.

Though i'm starting to grow tired of the neck dive I want a diferent bass to play for a little while, a fender jazz or something.
Too bad I just dropped £45 on an EBS octabass

Agreed.
It's a pile of pooh.

I really like the white one, but the sunburst one is ace also.

Nice one man, i remember how excited i was when i got mine, i love it. Although i just got an Aerodyne as a thread on here says, i just think the Thunderbird looks kickass, and despite some peoples opinions i really like the tone as well, i think the gothic one sucks, compared to the sunburst and white ones, although i wish they did a standard black finish like the Gibsons have, i think the white scratchplate looks great, and i dont like the dull black on the gothic. Have fun:thumb:
