Who's making new double necks?

Post by Ron Victoria »

I ran across this and was wondering who is making these? Strange that it wouldn't have a logo or name somewhere.

Auction on eBay.

The wooden nut, the pickups, the control knobs and the bridge assembly remind me very much of an "Artisan". Seems like a good point to start with if you are going multi-necks. I'll be watching this one!

If they want to sell guitars, six string stuff sure isn't the way to go, unless there are models built with 8.

There is a logo shown on the far, or upper neck, but the photo isn't clear enough to make out what it says. I have no doubt that this is made in the same Chinese factory as the Artisan lap steels. It's an interesting attempt at appealing to more players.

Both necks on the same playing level is not very appealing. Reminds me of the old SUPRO MOTS models.
