Gibson EDS-1275 Double Neck

I found this rare item on Ebay for about one grand.

Two guitars in one, great quality, great color (red).

Nothing!

Plays great, surprisingly light wieght.

Oh baby, this axe is a beast. Two items in one monstrous guitar. It not only appears beautiful, but the sound is exquisite to your ears. When I tell you how great this product is, I'm not kidding. I used in live in concert and it rocks. This foxy axe is undoubtedly the best I have, and it comes close to the number one guitar ever!

Manufacturing States, my MODEL is a copy of 1978, color wood.
Today it is not selling burgundy and white.

UTILIZATION

The handle is soft to the touch trs, volume and tonal note the position of the switch to move from the 12 6 is not positioned in the right location, because playing can touch without doing not too careful!

The sound of the 12 suberbe is, yes, it spcial, but go to the website of Gibson cost the extract is exactly that!
Trs tonn of the quality of the sound of six strings, much better than the SG that I could try. Beware, my MODEL is a vintage that can explain the good rev.

The ergonomics are quite good, this guitar is much smaller than in + the imagination of all, we take it so easily to hand. Access in Aiguier poses no Pb, even if standing on the six strings, it Fadri just play the elbow to be trs ease.

SOUNDS

Unlike what I've read many reviews, this guitar is quite versatile because of its range on offer is important trs. We pass easily from its support of the 12 beautiful sound of six solo.
The 12 is pretty crystal then the 6 "slap", ideal for a good bluesy its fat!

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 1 year, the top, you can really play live, and it is not so "exclusive" as some say. Quite difficult to find MODELS "vintage" in France, the United States but some tend become scarce.

I tried the nine MODEL for sale in stores, the sound is a little less fat mque my vintage but shows the great CHARACTERISTICS that make this guitar a rve old kid!

MODEL 1979 - Colour Cherry
Config original pickups: Humbucker ALNICO 490 and 498 (for two, of course ...)
Saddle sleeves in three pices C - Mahogany body
Sleeves as sensitive as the SG gnral ... connoisseurs understand

UTILIZATION

The sleeves (yes ... the 6 strings too) are surprisingly wide. I have an SG Custom 68 and this has nothing to do double-neck in terms of grip. But you get used quickly and finally, 12-string cot in any case, thank you ...
Access in Acute trsdlicat 6 is against, if not more.
I used to wear "low" trstt but playing in the treble is not the quality of this guitar ... Kin unless you have a home.
Otherwise, it is certainly heavy but not as you can imagine if one remembers the day we have o "pesquot, a Les Paul for the first time. At the end of half an hour, I advise a board or a T SG normal rcuprer story of a little
Question her, it's not a Start but trs trs versatile. Section 12 is perfect accuracy and heat it draws the quintessence if you do not load too much on effects "soup" type distortion or overdrive galore.
For the part six strings, it should transfer the cache if you want a good attack and EHJV rock ... I guarantee you that you do not pick or RMC RTL provided! Ms. n'tait my luthier trs hot but not finally recognized the merits of the maneuvering .... (Even if it is my 68 with Bigsby he loves!).
Anyway ... dcoupe apart from the bottom to Access in acute on the handle 6 is a joy.

SOUNDS

Repetition: the sound is versatile trs that does not try to do the trash, of course.
I have a lot jou Marshall lamp 74 and the marriage is perfect, even normal volume. But for reasons of convenience (and vicinity), I use a Line6 Spider II and it's cool .. Finally, a right for me
Section 12 is extraordinarily clear and natural for an electric, I think t think this guitar has 12 strings around ...

OVERALL OPINION

I have this guitar for 4 years and I really regret not having bought it.
I amricain imports from Canada (Ontario) a price that seemed reasonable for the era A model of this age (even if not the best PERIOD GIBSON, we must say! ... but it's still "the former MODEL" Look at that date l. Custom Shop today and you'll understand!
This is a scratch "favorite" of kid ... rve everything that goes through your head but not the lead guitar. It is more lgre one can imagine but a lot heavier than the heaviest guitars.
Thus, estimate the returns to a qualitprix thse on religions in the world and Determines all gods that men vnrent, who are really
If I did not, I would look to have one, it's on. But a purchase of a deuxime ... it would superftatoire!

UTILIZATION

The two sleeves 12 and 6 are the same, extremely easy to play and very fast. the game 12 is comfortable and well used, 6 is well worth any other recent Gibson SG C / S. there is a problem of balance when playing standing up and purchase of strap lock is essential.

SOUNDS

2 guitars for the price of one. As for sound, 12, it is difficult to exhaust archetypes that have become standards of Eagles, Led Zep or Gun & Roses as this is his type. We must seek to move away.

OVERALL OPINION

I've been playing for 30 years, I did not really need this guitar, I have many others, it is rather a childhood dream come true in the cinema after seeing "The Song Remains the Same" when I was 15. Certain sounds will definitely mark your choice and guide many years after. I bought it new, I had tried other double neck but for me it was only the sound in my head. the price is relatively cheap for a guitar of this quality, the dream .... priceless
