Double Neck Electric Guitar For Faster Sound Changes
A double neck electric guitar is a guitar that has a total of 18 strings. Generally the top neck will have 12 strings and the bottom neck will have six stings. However you can also find double neck electric guitars that have a different number or combination of strings on each neck. You can also combine different types of guitar necks such as a regular guitar with a fretless guitar.
But why would anyone want a double neck electric guitar besides the fact that it looks cool? A double neck electric guitar makes it much easier for the player to switch guitar sounds. The song they are playing might not have enough time for them to change guitars. So instead they can play a double neck guitar and switch which neck they are using.
Currently you can also get a double necked bass electric guitar besides your standard electric guitars. A double necked bass guitar is desirable because it can have multiple tunings. This allows for a different sound and quick changing depending on the song.
There are many famous guitar players that have used a double neck electric guitar. Some of these players include, Don Fleder of the Eagles, Steve Howe of Yes, John Lodge of The Moody Blues, Slash of Guns 'N; Roses, Pete Townshend of the Who, Jimmy Page of Led Zeppelin, Steve Vai and more.
It is possible to have your double neck electric guitar customized as to the number of stings you want on each neck and to the type of neck used. The vast majority of double necked electric guitars are customized because they are not overly popular and in order to buy one you will need to order it. Then it is possible to customize it to your specifications.
One of the most popular double necked electric guitars is the Gibson Custom EDA-1275. This is the same model that was used to play Stairway to Heaven in the 70s. It is a handmade guitar that comes in a variety of colors and made from maple. It is possible to produce a range of sounds with the 3-way selector switch and Tune-O-matic Bridge.
The Ibanez Double neck guitar is a bass guitar. This type of guitar has six stings on one neck and 4 stings on the other for a total of 10 strings. The fingerboards are made of rosewood. It is a bit heavy and it is suggested that you sit down when playing or invest in some additional padding for the strap. It can easily be hooked up to an amplifier and has a 3 way switch.
Another very cool looking double neck electric guitar is the Flying V. This guitar has two flying V's joined together for the body of the guitar. This is a great look for those really interested in rockin' out. An available flying V guitar is from Samick. Its Samick GT-2 Greg Bennet Flying V. Its sound is very fat and warm. It is a very durable guitar with care. This guitar is not nearly as expensive as other double neck electric guitars and can be a great choice if you want that type of sound.
