I'll take two

 

[NumbSkull]

They are a guitar I like, but too heavy to be practical.
I will wait until they show up on ebay.

aw, I thought this was going to be a NGD post.

 

[StrummerJoe]

aw, I thought this was going to be a NGD post.

I apologize for letting you down.

I anticipate an NGD this summer, and hopefully that will make up for this.

Double necks aren't that cumbersome to play, i got two of them.

Sent it to my friend who has that kind of cash laying around, I hope he gets it so I can smell the Jimmy Page on it

 

[NumbSkull]

Buying this does sort of make sense to me,
Not as a guitar,
But as a status symbol, a sign of good taste,
and a work of art that tells a story of two moments in time,
The greatest song ever, and the maddest binge just before the collapse of civilisation.

I had an Epi version years ago. Not the same but the same neck joint design. Atrocious access to higher frets, just a ridiculous design.
Double necks are fun but not this, not even, honestly, for 2k.

 

[anitoli]

True the Gibson is not with out it's shortcomings but the look is classic. From a playability standpoint my Carvin DN 6/12 is a much better guitar. Neck through, 22 fret access, plenty of tonal options, but made of solid maple and heavier than a Gibson. Can't win, lol.

 

[Bull Rock]

Whoa

 

[Jethro Rocker]

My Rich Bich doubleneck fits the bill, bizarre tho it is.
Lita Ford etc.

 

[Torren61]

I played an EDS-1275 once and I found it to be really impractical. I thought it was cumbersome and not really for me.

 

[DirtySteve]

So many switches and knobs.

 

[Tederoni]

I wish they would put out a more accurate JP Les Paul in good enough numbers it isn't $25,000, but no; we get this.

 

[V-man]

This was the jerk-off of my generation (well, technically Lita Ford was) and it was Mustaine playing In My Darkest Hour, not Jimmy climbing stairways. It was no less iconic in my eyes back when and insanely cooler in every way, but you couldn’t put the pair together and justify anything near that bullshit price. Toss in a JP burst and a San Dimas KV-1 and maybe $50k begins to make sense.

BFHD Gibson.

 

[Moose Coghill]

I got one in the 70s for songs like Stairway and Madame Blue. The six string was difficult to play leads on and at best unpleasant to play. Opted instead for an Ovation 12 string strapped over top of my Les Paul. The round back kept it off of the LP, and I could sling it around behind me when not needed or just mute it with my arm when reaching for the LP - depending upon the song. Installed a mini-switch to kill the Ovation signal/battery for practical reasons. Still have it.

This new one is for rich collectors... of course. Cheers

Yeah, I bought a scratch and dent white Epiphone 1275 from Musicians friend for 500$ worth of backstage points. It’s mint, had a minor scratch I buffed out. I reset the action, truss Rod and intonation on the 12 string neck to see if it was a “Player” and lo and behold. It is! I haven’t gotten the 6 string to where I want it, yet. But all things in time. Too many other projects take precedent. “Hotel California” is just around the corner….
