You know those guitars that are like, double guitars?

What's the price like? I'm guessing slightly above how much it would be available elsewhere.

Wow, Petrucci not only shaved off the beard, he had a haircut too!

Probably the second or third best-known double-neck player.

I have a double-neck Shergold Masquerader I got for £260 in 1980 - the money I'd saved for a Good Guitar, which I guess it was, but now I wish I'd got a decent normal guitar instead. I don't know what you could have got for that money, though. The 12-string, strangely, is on the bottom, so I could choose the 6-string being around my chin or the 12-string around my knees. I did play it to death, though, so I got my money's worth. And because it was really difficult getting a case for a double-neck in the early 1980s, I had to carry it without, under my arm, with one neck poking up either side of my shoulder.

One day, I'll get the 12-string bits converted to a proper single-neck 12-string. It really is an excellent jangle, especially with the Masquerader wiring (each pickup has a three-way switch that goes between humbucker, single coil or the two coils out of phase, which is pointlessly thin by itself, but mixes with the other pickup quite well).

I made this for @philking. I wouldn't describe it as practical

I wanted it for a prog-rock band I was in when I first ordered it, but it took a while. However I was in a cover band and this is great for Hotel California, as I play bass for most of the set, and this lets me do the intro and the bit in the middle. You need a wide strap though and I wouldn't want to use it for more than one song at a time! It does get a lot of comments though!
