A double neck guitar allows a player to switch between different types of guitar without having to put one down and pick up the other, like a six- and twelve-string guitars or a lead and bass guitars. The EDS-1275, one of the most popular double neck Gibson guitars, was used by Jimmy Page of the Led Zeppelin on his live version of "Stairway to Heaven." The EDS-1275 double-neck guitar is handmade in Nashville. It has solid maple necks and a mahogany body, and its fretboard is made of rosewood. Each guitar has its own PAF humbucker pickup.
Another version is the Jimmy Page Les Paul limited edition - this double-neck guitar's fretboards are made from rosewood. There are 20 frets with split-parallelogram inlays. First double neck Gibson guitars (the EDS-1275) were produced in 1958. In 1962, the design was changed to the SG body style. In 1968, they stopped production of the EDS-1275, but it was restarted again in 1977, but the line was discontinued in 1990. This popular double-neck Gibson was made with a cherry finish, tobacco burst, and ebony with chrome or gold hardware and alpine white with gold hardware.
In 2004, Gibson began working with Jimmy Page to create a replica of the famous EDS-1275 SG double-neck guitar. There are a limited number with his signature on one of the necks. There are also additional replicas created by Page and Gibson - these do not have his signature on them, but do come with a certificate of authenticity.
An interesting variation by Gibson is a double-neck mandolin, the EMS-1235. This was in production from 1958 through 1968 and even though it is called a mandolin, it was really a double cutaway. The top neck is shorter and tuned one octave higher than the standard pitch. This guitar had one-piece mahogany necks and rosewood fingerboards. Both necks were six-string ones and used thinline hollow bodies until 1961. In 1962, they changed to the SG style and were in production until 1968, when production was stopped.
And the last example of double neck Gibson guitars is the Gibson EBS-1250, which was in production from 1962 to 1970. This one was a bass/lead guitar - the top neck is a bass (four strings) and the bottom neck is a six-string guitar.
Some of the double neck Gibson guitars are collectibles only, but many are still practical musical instruments. They are not usual but definitely original and practical if needed as well. Have a look at some current listings of the double neck Gibson guitars here to have a full picture of what this article was about.
