Doesn't get much rarer than this. A double necked Eharp. I only have heard of one other one.
Btw, for those interested in what you tune the back neck to: It is the alkire tuning with the bottom 6 strings tuned an octave lower. Top 4 strings are exactly the same. So it gives you a very nice different voicing without having to learn a new neck.

Cool! It looks brand new. That's a lot of strings to change!  |

It was Alkire’s design to help identify the three octaves |

I just ordered a Kemper foot pedal. That way I can customize each neck's sound. There is a bit of a balance difference going from the front neck to the back neck, but with the kemper foot pedal, I'll be able to equalize each neck as I move back and forth. I may end up selling all my other steels.
BTW, here is the original case:
