The Epiphone G1275 is now available for a pretty affordable price from most online retailers.
Features 2 guitars in one: one 12-string and one 6-string maple.
Popularized in the early seventies, the classic Gibson version of this double neck model was used by bands like Led Zeppelin.
Epiphone as usual have done the right thing and brought to market a quality guitar for about a third ofthe price of the Gibson model. That means that mere mortals like us can probably afford it if we save our pennies for a few months.
And the quality difference between the Gibson and Epiphone is hardly noticeable. Indeed some reviewers have stated that they prefer the Epiphone, particularly the fret board.
Epiphone G1275 Features
The guitar sports 4 humbuckers a rosewood fingerboard and a mahogony body. The hardware is chrome. Two of the pickups are covered "Patent Applied For"-style humbuckers.
- Flamed maple top
- Mahogany body
- Set mahogany neck
- Heritage cherry finish
- 1.85" nut width
- Rosewood fingerboard
- Chrome hardware
- 24-3/4" scale
- Parallelogram inlays
- 2 Alnico Classic humbuckers
The selector switches have three settings.
If you're a little adventurous you could tune the 12 string guitar to a chromatic or open tuning and create an accompanying 'drone' while you artistically fly up and down the 6 string fret board. Just set the selector switch to the middle position and have both necks activated at the same time.
You'll most likely want to look elsewhere if you want a guitar to really shred on but if you're looking for a good quality double neck then buy this Ephiphone G1275. You should be able to get hold of this Epiphone double neck for around $1200.

Ok so most of us can't afford a Gibson Angus Young signature SG which usually go for around two grand so Epiphone have quite rightly given us a cheaper version, the Epiphone G400.
But the cheaper price tag doesn't mean cheaper quality. Most people report that the Epiphone is just as good as the Gibson model. This doesn't surprise me. Epiphone have been making quality guitars for years.
Features
The Epiphone G400 sports the same classic double cutaway SG shape with chrome hardware, a rosewood fingerboard, mahogany body and neck and 2 AINiCo humbucker pickups. Each humbucker has it's own switch so you can choose to use the bridge pick-up, neck pick-up, or both giving you total control of your sound.
The LockTone stopbar tailpiece and Tune-O-Matic bridge provide great sustain and tone, and make string changing easier.
The tone and sustain of the guitar is aided significantly by the LockTone stopbar tailpiece and the tuneomatic bridge as is the tiresome task of changing strings.
There are several colors available, the coolest I think is the cherry red one.
This is a great guitar if you're on a budget and can't afford the hefty price tag of a Gibson SG. You'll find very few failings with this Epiphone G400 guitar and it's a top choice if you're looking for a hard rock tone and a solid guitar.
You should be able to get the Epiphone G400 for under $350 on the web.
