With the Limited Edition G1275 Doubleneck electric guitar, Epiphone have once again made one of rock’s most iconic instruments available to the world at a price that is within reach.
The G-1275 is based on the original EDS1235 Double Neck that was first produced at the legendary Gibson/Epiphone Kalamazoo, Michigan factory in 1963. Only ever produced in small numbers, the 1275 quickly became one of the most sought-after and original guitars in rock. Embraced by British rockers like Pete Townshend of the Who, Jimmy Page of Led Zeppelin and John McLaughlin the 1275 was also used by Elvis Presley, bluesman Earl Hooker and the Eagles’ Don Felder.
When Epiphone first reintroduced the Doubleneck G-1275, it became an instant hit with acts such as US Rock Band, the Flaming Lips. Now, it’s back again as a limited edition with that one-of-a-kind vibe and sound.
