Looks like it might be a pretty recent issue. Probably a custom shop order.

Hmmmmmm,let me sleep on it. Zzzzzzzz-hell ya!

 

[Coralkong]

Nice.

Looks like it weighs a ton.

I love it but have no practical use for it... So I'll take two.

Every time I see a double neck, and think about the weight, I realize why the SG was a pretty good choice as a double neck.

Love the look of the Gretsch version, though!

But it needs to be an over-sized hat covered with rhinestones.

I'm a little confused as to why these are still made, with pedals and other simulators that can create a pretty good 12-string sound, but they do look neat.

As long as it's not equipped with Filtertrons I'm all for it

You answered your own question. Multi-neck guitars are props.

They're from the pre-FMIC era, revived company (1990s-2002). It's sort of a custom shop Nashville 6122. Only a few were made. The only things I don't like about it are the pickups (during that era, FilterTrons used ceramic, instead of Alnico magnets), and the headstock shape, which is kind of Baldwin era Gretsch in shape.
