spectoremg Posted January 3, 2019 Posted January 3, 2019 Interesting. Wonder what it'll go for? Quote
fleabag Posted January 3, 2019 Posted January 3, 2019 He's got a reserve on it, which are usually set below , but near to , the BIN price, so maybe £550 at a guess ? Worth that IMO Quote
spectoremg Posted January 3, 2019 Posted January 3, 2019 Nice to have, but when to use is the difficult one; when is it ever unpretentious to pull out your twin neck? Quote

BassBus Posted January 3, 2019 Posted January 3, 2019 The necks are the wrong way round. Mike Rutherford always had the guitar on top. Oh, hang on. Geddy always had the bass on top. Hmm. 1 Quote
spectoremg Posted January 3, 2019 Posted January 3, 2019 Heavy and awkward. Mike always had the front strap button on the lower horn of his bass part (Shergolds). Quote
Bassassin Posted January 4, 2019 Posted January 4, 2019 Always though a guitar/bass double neck is really only any use for showing the guitarist what he's supposed to be playing. So - actually very useful indeed, then. 1 Quote

Also comes in handy for playing the bass and guitar parts to 'Peaches' at the same time. 1 Quote
spectoremg Posted January 9, 2019 Posted January 9, 2019 Ended at £480. A steal I reckon for someone in a prog tribute. Quote

Woodinblack Posted January 9, 2019 Posted January 9, 2019 Yeh - I thought about it but I haven't got the space and noone to form a prog band with! Quote
Newfoundfreedom Posted January 9, 2019 Posted January 9, 2019 Well I certainly didn't buy it. I'm still trying to work out what to do with a single neck. Quote

Asking for money for it? - that's perilously close to fraud. Quote
fleabag Posted January 11, 2019 Posted January 11, 2019 It's hard to imagine just how huge that neck is, front to back. That thing is like a broken pencil. Pointless Quote
BreadBin Posted January 11, 2019 Posted January 11, 2019 I am struggling to see the 200 mm difference in scale length? 1 Quote
