Gibson Double Neck Guitar – Sweet Guitar & FREE shipping
Much like the other top guitar manufacturers, Gibson have been associated with some high profile stars over the years.
And when it comes to the Gibson double neck guitar this is most definitely the case.
The Gibson EDS 1275 Double Neck Electric Guitar is a reissue of the original model which was originally released in 1963. However, it wasn't really until the early 70s when it became a real icon in the guitar world.
John McLaughlin and Jimmy Page (of Led Zep of course) were the two leading users of the Gibson double neck guitar. So with this guitar you get two necks for the price of one! Awesome. The first is a 6 string neck and the other, a twelve string.
This reissue from Gibson is completely hand made in Nashville Tennessee and is manufactured to an extremely high standard as you would expect.
But because of that this Gibson double neck guitar is also a limited edition. There are not, and probably will never be, many of them around. So if you're lucky enough to get your hands on it you will be the koolest kat on the block with your certificate of authenticity.
So let's dig deeper into this guitar's features.
The body is surprisingly light for a mahogany guitar body. This is a great improvement. If you've ever picked up one of the older Gibson double neck guitars you'll know they weigh a ton and aren't particularly comfortable to hang round the neck. However, this reissue is still a little on the heavy side with it's 2 necks. You just need to get yourself a good thick strap.
The two necks set on the body are made of solid maple both with 20 fret fingerboards of rosewood and of course inlays.
There are 2 three way selector switches, one for each neck and along with the tune-o-matic bridge enable you to create awesome sounds.
One of the best reasons I can see for getting this guitar is if you like to play 12 string electric. With both 12 and 6 string capabilities in your hands it means you don't have to carry that extra guitar to gigs. And Rickenbacker 12 strings can be heavy beasts!
This Gibson double neck guitar is getting great reviews but remember, there are only a few of them produced each year. And of course you get a Gibson Custom Shop hard shell case and certificate of authenticity to go with this stunning guitar.

The Gibson ES 335 is a classic semi-hollowbody design.
Ever obsessed with tradition, Gibson is a company that always incorporates a particular style into their guitar models. Once they'd turned the guitar world upside down with their revolutionary Les Paul model in the fifties, they made a stunning comeback with a guitar steeped in Gibson's roots that combined both the benefits of a sold body with the style of a hollow body archtop.
In 1958 they released the Gibson ES 335 guitar which one year later evolved into a highly sought after model in 1959. Just as Gretsch have re-released their classic models Gibson are also now offering the 1959 classic ES 335 as a brand new 1959 ES-335 Dot Reissue.
