Ibanez Double Neck Guitar Double Your Pleasure Double Your Fun

[@MichaelColombo]

My Dad had one of these. He was a pro union musician that had a "continuous music" clause when they played banquets/weddings etc. So with the full band he'd be on bass, but if a few guys in the band went on break, he'd switch to guitar with maybe the piano player playing bass on the left hand...or he'd just do some guitar music on his own during a cocktail hour. It was very useful for him and he used it for over 20 years.

[@onpsxmember]

How is his back? They seem more managable than other double neck anchors.

[@MichaelColombo]

@@onpsxmember he had a very thick, padded strap for it, and luckily could sit down at gigs most of the time. I actually have it now and can confirm it's heavy as fuck.

[@mr7wi]

You answered my question - bass and guitar double neck made little sense to me.

[@TaralgaBushAdventure]

In remarkably good shape for something worked so hard in the 80's - and the Ibanez is looking great too.

[@davidallen346]

Bass Frets are so tall neck almost seem scalloped

Those straight necks, perfect electronics and intonation all set (everything functions as it should)..are a testament to the high quality instruments Ibanez was putting out in the early 80's..I have a few and they are awesome..This one is rare in its bass on top guitar on bottom configuration..yes separate output for two amps.. bass and guitar..I would love one...

[@jacquescousteau217]

Actually I think it’s later 1970s.

[@c.a.t.732]

I had an Ibanez double-neck very similar to this many, many years ago. Mine was more like a straight SG/EB combination in terms of looks and pick-up configuration. The only thing really wrong with it were the bolt-on necks, which flexed like crazy, particularly the guitar neck. It was really easy to go out of tune with any sort of pressure on the neck. Other than that, it was a lot of fun. I had it re-wired with a stereo jack so each neck could go to a different amp, or to two channels of the same amp. I wish I still had it...

[@brocklanders6172]

This guitar is from late '70's - very early '80's. I had an Ibanez sales brochure when I was 14 - and dreaming of rock stardom, that showed this as a custom order option. It has the Ibanez Musician bass pickup. This brochure also showed an 8-string Musician option bass with a cool picture of John McVie playing it.

“And if I hurt your guitar, I’d fix it, and you’d never know...” if that isn’t something a serial killer would say, I don’t know what is 😂

[@stevenedwards4470]

The Geddisho Lee model. Niceish. Most people don't need one but that looks pretty solid.

[@mightyV444]

I love vintage Ibanez guitars and basses! 😍 That model is an ST-1400, by the way 🙂

[@dontderockmeriz4546]

I have the 6 string version of the guitar. The guitars are called ST-50, 100 or 200 models. Each have a little different details. Made in the late 70’s & early 80’s. Rock machines

[@fatabelly]

Great video with an awesome guitar... always liked Ibanez, you can't go wrong with them.

[@bobby9727]

LMFAO sound of snapping rubber gloves ,run for the hills.

[@barryhaynes103]

the snap of the glove will do it to ya ... every time ... classic !!!

[@chisbang53]

I'm gonna check tomorrow to see if he corrects the naming error.

[@allenaviation5746]

Formby's furniture cleaner with a toothbrush works well to clean that fret board cheese. I generally don't like oil but if a fret board really needs it, Homer's lemon oil works good too. Another furniture product is Old English to darken or rejuvenate fret boards. It works sometimes and doesn't turn my fingers purple. That was recommended by the dealer for scratches in my daughter's expensive double bass so I figure it won't hurt guitars.

[@brucepiland]

Cool. I’d LOVE a jazz bass/Strat with the bass on top.

[@comptonazzdonny]

i didn't realize Dave was such a natural at ASMR

[@seqouiaflame]

Flat wounds on a guitar sound cool, flat wounds on a bass.... AMAZING!

[@brocklanders6172]

No.

[@keirzeiss2069]

Hi Dave! I watch your videos each day all the way from New Zealand. Love your stuff!!! Keep 'em coming! Cheers, Kev

[@SeanKerns]

What a cool axe(s). I've never seen one of these, but the guitars from that era of Ibanez are rightfully legendary.

[@timothymckane6362]

Last time I was early, Dave was fixing a triple neck guitar.

[@petedazer3381]

Your video pre and post bits are just as cool as the actual content! You really know your shit Dave, as we say across the Ambassador Bridge

[@deaddadd]

I had a Ric 4080, modeled after the black one Geddy Lee used. Heavy so n so but the bass tone was incredible. The guitar, not so much...biggest regret of my life is selling it.

[@sanborns]

Got your sticker today, thanks for freely giving out luthier info to all who fix our own instruments. Rock on .... you are the best.

[@thomasburnett4712]

Beautiful instrument!

[@sd3falco]

That would make an awesome wall decoration.

[@tomkirk6942]

Always cracks me up to see how many folks attach strings to a stringed instrument. Absolutely wonderfully hilarious. Keep up the great work Dave. Love your work as always. Cheers from Northern Utah.

Jeez those fretboards were filthy.

[@DogBizzle]

the bassist/rhythm guitarist from the band boris plays one of these on stage every show!

[@LittleCoding]

DAMN that is a beast of a guitar!

[@TheMilford]

It's a model ST-1400 IIRC, FWIW, BTW

[@TheMilford]

Google Reproguitarparts dot com for a replacement locking nut for that bridge... he's a good dude and has all sorts of replacement parts for vintage ibanez.

[@MrTomengle]

Very interesting guitar. Enjoyed this one very much.

[@chrishopkins209]

If I had that double neck I'd definitely fit a stereo jack and use a Y cable

[@gilmarriner3011]

Great job as always Dave! But I still can‘t figure out why a double neck bass AND six string? Seems to me that the owner couldn’t make up his or her mind what they wanted to be ;)). But, its an Ibenez so it‘s got to be good.

[@Aint1S]

I've never checked it, but the people that don't own one at the guitar splinter say you can patch baritone guitars through your guitar amp... It's basically a short scale bass guitar. I think I'd use a baritone in place of a double neck.

[@hadleymanmusic]

Yep I resc7ed a white epi c7stom LP took it to the kitchen sink it was green too.

[@icurt06]

I love Dave's sarcasm! He always makes me laugh. LOL

[@ProSimex84]

Need to plug that into a Traynor YBA-1 and a yorkville 8x10.

[@Riverdeepnwide]

Ahhh the YBA-1, my first bundle of joy! For some stupid reason which seemed smart at the time, I sold it. 😕

[@ProSimex84]

@@Riverdeepnwide we all make mistakes, I feel like Dave being in Toronto and the age of that guitar it would be a very "period correct" combination

[@donaldholman9070]

A real mans instrument

cool stuff dave,like always great video

[@guygordon2780]

Can you imagine a Rickenbacker Double Neck? Four (4!) truss rods.

[@MikeyMack303]

Thanks, Dave! I knew it was Ibanez! ;-)

[@warmitag]

I have the 6/12 version (with the extremely rare glued in necks). Great looking/playing/sounding guitar. ST1300BS

[@scottwebb8151]

I just can't wrap my head around this instrument.You either do guit or bass,wtf...I guess Jack White ordered this one back in the day...

[@SlaughteredDecay]

You have been ibanezed again!

[@Gunslinger320]

Cool

[@RockStarOscarStern634]

Dave's World of Fun Stuff It has a Bass & Guitar neck

[@joearlinghaus8497]

It sounds and looks like the bass and guitar PUs are interacting with one another when both necks are active. The owner probably just switches to the neck they are playing at the time to work around that problem, to play through a single amp.

[@Twobarpsi]

Double Gooched!

For all you guys asking, what this guitar is for? For example Marko Hietala plays a similar sort of a guitar, where the base is on top and a 6 string is below. Here it is: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gGm7qKVnoLl4ms0 And here is the song that followed: kzbin.info/www/bejne/kKCbn5aBlJqesMU Enjoy!

Oh goodie, it's "Progrock Day" in Dave's shop today. Glad I didn't miss it. 👽🖖"Na-nu" Yo Dave, do you charge by the neck or if I bring my quadruple neck guitar in, does that count as "one" guitar? 😁✌

[@fladification]

Not dicey Dave, just plug it in to a dirt box then a bass amp and if you're stuck with only a guitar amp....don't turn it up too much, that's where the dicey comes in. Bass amps make great guitar amps, just ask Jimi Hendrix.
