reverb.com/item/28494311-2019-gibson-custom-shop-slash-signature-1966-eds-1275-double-neck-aged-signed?_aid=growsumo&gs_partner=Trogly I have a newfound respect for these crazy Double Necks. They are a lot of fun to play and I highly suggest you try one out. While 13k isn't affordable for most people, there are less expensive Epiphone versions and even most used (non-signature) ones can be had for around 3-4k. You can't help but smile playing one of these behemoths! eBay: rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fsch%2Fi.html%3F_from%3DR40%26_trksid%3Dp2380057.m570.l1313.TR10.TRC2.A0.H0.Xgibson.TRS2%26_nkw%3DEDS-1275%2Bslash%26_sacat%3D0&campid=5338292223&toolid=20008 Amazon: www.amazon.com/s/ref=as_li_ss_tl?k=guitar+strings&ref=nb_sb_noss_1&linkCode=sl2&tag=trogly-20&linkId=b0bba4061d2613a6aa156768416f638b&language=en_US Episode Guide: 0:00 - Intro 0:40 - Slash EDS-1275 1:08 - Slash's History of Double Necks 2:15 - What's a Double Neck? 3:20 - Double Neck History 5:04 - What's it Like to Play One? 7:25 - The Controls 10:05 - Inside Look / Specs 19:53 - Clean Demos 21:27 - Dirty Demo (Charlie) 24:17 - Final Thoughts 26:07 - Condition 28:35 - Blacklight Test 29:20 - Case + Candy Mentioned Videos/Websites: Knocking on Heaven's Door Live: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aF63Y6lvoKl2eKs Stairway Live: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eXPOXpyIns2Gi8k EMS-1235 GuitarPoint: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fWWTaKBojMlqjdE EBS-1250 Fretted Americana: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qnO7cmx_abWKr6c Double Neck Guitars Website Erik Ernest: www.abalonevintage.com/gibson_double_neck_guitars_1958_eds1275_double_twelve_1959_ems1235_double_mandolin_doubleneck_hollowbody_sg.htm

Resistance drops when pickups (or Humbucker coils) coils are wired in parallel (plus to plus, minus to minus, the only way a toggle 3 way works), as opposed to going up when in series (plus to minus, like the coils on a humbucker are normally). It's just like speakers.

My good buddy who I played in a band with while attending college had one of these (I believe manufactured at some point in the '70s - he owned it from the '90s until some point in the 2000s, good condition, although the case smelled no matter what was done to it!), and I ended up spending quite a bit of time with it (as he absolutely hated stringing his many guitars as is, so suffice to say, he hated the process on this guitar 3 times as much!). Playing on the "off" neck while the "on" neck sympathetically resonates is definitely a fun, unique sound. I last had custody of it sometime around '04-'05, and your description of the neck profile, the overall feel brings back memories for me - I think you pretty much nailed it. I guarantee he paid a LOT less than $13K, for his (waiting for him to text me back what he paid back then).

Very interesting. The sympathetic output from the side of the guitar not being played does add evidence to the whole tone-wood debate. What I've read is that Vintage pickups were many times microphonic in nature. The belief is that the microphonics of the pickup(s) actually add to the overall tone of a vintage instrument. If the wood does indeed vibrate and add to the overall sound (and this would be expected as certain woods are resonate in nature) then the microphonic pickups would reproduce these sounds/harmonics and include these additional sounds/tones/harmonics and frequencies into the guitar's pickups output. So even though some have argued that tone-wood is a myth we here have clear evidence that the wood is resonating and inducing signal output in the other pickups. As I stated earlier, very, very interesting. So in theory as long as you have a guitar with a resonate piece of wood and slightly microphonic pickups you should have a pretty good sounding instrument. This whole thing kind of proves out why my custom built R9 sounds so good with un-potted Burstbucker #1 and #2 pickups as those un-potted pickups are indeed microphonic.

I have the epiphone version of the 1275 with set necks and it is HEAVY. Best plywood body as well but still sounds reasonable and was slightly more affordable. However if anyone is tempted by the cheapo epi version, DO change the switches as they all seem to be pretty unreliable on all the epis I've bought.

Get your money back now!! Just saw a brand new white double neck leave Sarasota FL Guitar Center that blows this crap away! You exposed so many flaws in this I’m pissed off at Gibson for ripping people off. Who was that jamming at the end? Thank you for the hard work YOU put into this for us!!

Yeah. You can get a custom shop "standard" model (i.e., not some weird Rick Nielsen quintuple neck) from pretty much any manufacturer for less than $5k. Anything more than that is paying for stuff other than materials and craftsmanship. You're paying for a name, some collector value, or you're buying a display piece. I've even played with Kiesel's custom builder and can't even break $5k on a ridiculous all-exotic wood multiscale 8 string.

@@tcarroll2054 how often does he do that? Idk about others but this one should definitely have been shown and brought to Gibson's attention. Worst part about it though is that they'd never feel it. I'm sure they'd somehow end up making more money finding some way to write it off.

"Blemish"? Did we watch the same video? I may be wrong but I thought the wood was split and he could tell that someone tried to repair it due to evidence of wood filler . If that was really the case, then that was being deceitful by whomever damaged it. I understand that it's a relic guitar but damn. I'd be pissed if I found that on a 13 thousand dollar guitar. Hell, I'd be pissed if I found it on any guitar no matter the price of it. But on the other hand, it looks all to hell anyway so what difference does it really make? 🤷‍♂️ It's like buying an extremely reliced guitar that was purposely made to look used and abused and you complain about an extra scratch, ding or whatever that you think shouldn't be there. My comment was about the moral aspect of it basically.

The two necks are wired parallel instead of series-that’s why the volume drops when you go to two necks from just one.

I hope the right people at Gibson see this video and work to stop the bad quality control. My guess is someone covered their tracks with the mistake under the pick guard for fear of losing their job. If Gibson cannot police quality control across such a high profile and extravagant run of only 125 guitars, they will forever remain known as a company that produces SOME great guitars amongst A LOT of rough. Many of us love good Gibson guitars but we are conflicted when we see such lack of QC. Great demo thank you, but still feeling flat about Gibson as a guitar brand. 🙁

I told you to get AN EDS-1275 not THIS EDS-1275. Cheaper, easier to unload, probably better made because the fixtures are in use. I'm griping, but glad you documented this anyway.
