Never seen this before though and I'm an Ibanez fan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassassin Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 Must be the weather for them - there's this as well: [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/IBANEZ-TWIN-NECK-SG-BASS-SIX-STRING-GUITAR_W0QQitemZ280341495971"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/IBANEZ-TWIN-NECK-SG-...emZ280341495971[/url] As for upsetting the band - our prog-head guitarist would like nothing more than for both of us to play twin-necks! Mine would have to be fretted/5-string fretless bass though, there might be some point then... J. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOD2 Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 I can vaguely remember seeing one. I think they were branded as "Antoria" in the UK - I don't recall them being Ibanez in the UK, but they'd all come from the same factory and be badged according to whoever imported them. There was never a Fender equivalent. This was a "new" instrument that Ibanez/Antoria developed themselves. I can't imagine that they made very many. I think the special case that you needed for it cost about half as much as the guitar itself ! There was a short craze for double neck guitars in the mid/late seventies so they probably saw a market opportunity. But then punk came along and a double neck guitar was the epitome of everything punk was against - so they quickly disappeared. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now (at least where I am) Punk is going and Prog is returning...I could well see a twin neck SG soon! One neck is enough for me though LOL!
