Double Neck Guitar

More than one voice in one instrument

A double neck guitar gives players two separate necks on a single body, usually to switch between six- and twelve-string parts or other alternate tunings. This format appeals to guitarists who need a wider tonal palette without changing instruments during a performance.

Designed for stage practicality

Although a double neck guitar is physically larger than a standard instrument, it can be invaluable in live settings where fast changes matter. It is particularly useful when a song requires contrasting textures, such as driving rhythm work followed by a fuller, chiming section.

Consider weight and balance

When choosing a double neck guitar, players should think carefully about comfort, strap support and how often both necks will be used. For the right musician, a double neck guitar offers a powerful combination of convenience, flexibility and classic rock appeal.
