@gravano2 A bit of a pain, but its bearable. It takes 3 times as long as a normal guitar (because there are 3 times as many strings) but other then that its exactly the same.
Amazing? Oh my friggin' god. This is mediocre to be nice about it. And by the way, it's the first time I've ever seen a long haired guy play a guitar. Ever. It's never been done before so I guess you've got that goin' for ya. What a nightmare. Jimmy Page is rolling over in his grave and he isn't even dead yet.
for fuck sake why is everyone like "why get two necks" i have one of these and i use the 12 string for rhythm and the 6 string for the lead parts in my song and im in a led zep tribute band so it comes in handy :P
They are not a waste of money if you play songs that require the tone of a 12string as well as a 6 string and don't have the chance in the song to swap guitars. (eg. Stairway to Heaven)
@analfabet123456789 they're not a waste of money, i can play both guitars at the same time, i mean each one with a different hand, like mike batio does
@analfabet123456789 true but #1 it's awesome looking, and you can tune one neck different from the other so you can play metal on one and like blues on another.
@analfabet123456789 Exactly what smezec said. You must not know much about guitars and music if you don't see the point of double necks. They're for convenience, like not changing guitars between songs, changing from 12 to 6 strings for song with both. For example, chords could be strummed on the 12 string and solo played on the 6 string. Think "Wish You Were Here" by Pink Floyd, although that was acoustic. You get the point though.
I have one of these and the ONLY problem I have with it is putting it down once I've picked it up. You should be able to pick one up for about a grand but it's definitely worth the money. I've seen where some change out the pick-ups but I think they're fine just the way they are.
@onett128 she is!!! the 12 string side is definitely hard to make it sound decent, changed strings about 3 times to get it right. the 6 string side has got a good sound and good pickups even comparing to my son's SG.
I used to sing in a LZ tribute band and our guitarist had one just like that. Also I own an Epiphone SG ( the same color ) and I love it! I think Epiphone is Gibson's alternative to Ibanez. Anyway, great guitars. : ]
If your in the UK coda-music . com is the best place if you want cheap first hand stuff. But it'l still be fairly expensive, so try second hand on ebay or something.
hey "smezec"i have 2 questions for u: 1.- how much did u pay for your guitar? 2.- i know that this guitar has 18 strums ,so is that a good guitar? i mean, is it easy to keep it in tune? i wait for your answer
just asking,because i thought that rock and guitars are gone for ever and everyone listens to rap and hip hop,but i found out that many people on youtube still love to headbang and rock on guitars
yeah your right,i love loud music like rock and metal,i hate rap and hip hop,which is ironic because i used to love eminem 2 years ago:S(i fucking hate him now)
Thanks. The amp itself isn't very good at all, its a Marshall Lead 20. But I'm using an ibanez tube screamer for the distorted bits and I used an SM57 mic to record this.
One neck is a 12 string, so if you need to do a song that has both 12 string and 6 string, eg Stairway to Heaven or Hotel California, you don't have to stop the song, run offstage and grab another guitar.
it looks really hard to play...im considering getting it....o well...jimmy page is a beast and he has one....if its good enough for him its good enough for me
I'm planning on getting one of those, playing a Gibson SG Special faded at the moment, and thought a Epiphone Double neck will make an awesome guitar to switch to :)
And I've been playing a Gibson SG Special too, and I think you'll be pleasantly surprised at an Epiphone Double neck, the quality of the guitar is excelent, even compared to a Gibson.
Ah? That sounds quite good. How long have you been playing if i may ask?
And one question, if playing when you stand up, doesn't the 6 string tend to get very low down and the 12 very high? And if so is the case, doesn't that make it abit uncomfortable to play on?
Yeah its a bit of a pain to stand up and play with it, it is rather painful on the ol' back.
If you can get the balance right its not too bad having the 12 string a bit high up. But the guitar is good enough to make the lowness and hurtingness on the back not important lol
Was planning on preforming Stairway to heaven with my band when we quit our school next year, and thought it'd be quite mighty to play it with a double neck (Of course, i'm not getting it just because of that, lol :P).
I'm planning on posting a vid of myself playing as soon as i can get my mic & cam to work together, so it would be fun if you'd take a look at it sometime when it's up!
There is a one guitar with 6 NECKS! I dont know who play it,but i'm very jelaous.
