The Gibson-EDS-1275 has been a favorite among guitarists because it grants them the ability to shift from a 6-string to a 12-string configuration without pausing to change their instruments.

When you see a Gibson Double Neck EDS-1275, it may seem familiar because it is also the one used by Led Zeppelin’s lead guitarist Jimmy Page when he played the song “Stairway to Heaven”.

The double necked guitar allowed him to perform the full song without needing to stop and change guitars.

Today, Gibson has re-launched the well famed double-neck guitar.

It still looks like the good old Gibson-EDS-1275 but it is enhanced with the use of modern guitar making technology. Initially, the EDS-1275 Double neck was introduced as a hollow body guitar way back in 1958. And up to this day, this timeless classic is still a sought after item.

Even if Jimmy Page is the one who popularized it, you can embark on your own rock journey and make your own history!

The SG EDS-1275 Double Neck Guitar features genuine tune-o-matic bridges in addition to vintage tuners and three-way selector switches installed to both guitars.

Over the years, the shape of the guitar body was changed. Unlike the current 3 piece maple setup, the one Jimmy Page used uses a one piece mahogany bi-neck setup. Its tailpieces are situated close to the guitar body’s base and the PAF humbucker pickups. Just recently, Gibson has released the Jimmy Page Signature model of the EDS-1275 double neck guitar.
