On December 8, 1976 the Eagles released their album “Hotel California,” which remains one of the most successful LPs in Rock history to this day. The title track was composed by Eagles members Don Felder, Glenn Fry, and Don Henley, and for the iconic intro Don Felder needed an electric 12-string guitar with a capo attached to the seventh fret. However, since Felder also had to play a lot of lead parts in this piece he conveniently opted for a Gibson SG Double-Neck. We are delighted to be able to offer you an exact replica of this double-neck today. Only 110 of the original guitars were produced between 1962 and 1968 and this exclusive rarity factor is also reflected in the replica, with only 50 specimens of this “Aged & Signed” version being built in the Gibson Custom Shop. Of course these have long since sold out and a signed Don Felder double-neck is extremely rare to find on the second-hand market. The guitar has all the classic features of this musical era including four great Gibson PAF-style humbuckers on an enormously resonant, solid mahogany body. In addition, it features special wiring and of course all the individual modifications that Felder made to his own EDS-1275 to optimize it for his live performances. As always when it comes to special signature instruments the Custom Shop has meticulously and faithfully replicated the look of Felder's double neck. And sonically you get the best of both worlds: the natural, smooth sound of a 12-string neck and the smacking, fat power chords and solos of a six-string Rock ‘n’ Roll beast! A fantastic collector's item with great musical historical rarity value, but also as a soundmighty player with a rich tonal palette. This double-neck, which we can offer you in absolute collector's condition, is thoroughly convincing. Note for collectors: To round off this fantastic package perfectly, even the original box is included in the delivery!
