Can't believe this thread has been around for multiple hours and I'm the first one to ask...

Weight??

If it's over seven pounds, I'm out.

Squire is one of the few bassists I've actually seen use all three necks during one song, I think it's Awaken. I saw Rick Nielson playing the multi- neck (lost count) backing up Aerosmith, and he playe it on ONE song (for obvious reasons), and I don't recall him ever touching more than one neck, it's just a goofy prop. The new bassist for ZZ Top drags out that 15 (or whatever) string bass.... and then plays only the bottom 4 strings, because it's impossible to reach all the other ones. Showbiz! Geddy used his double-neck pretty effectively on one song, Xanadu, also Mike Rutherford of Genesis using the double neck Shergold, but 3+ gets into Spinal Tap territory.

guitar players can do whatever they want. Anything to get more spotlight time! But we bass players, all we need is a p bass and a groovin' drummer, and we happy.

Best use of this cliche that I've seen in a long time! Well played!

If the middle one was a 7 stringer I'd be all over it. GLWTS

For anyone interested, here's Vai playing the triple neck that the OP's ad is clearly ripping off:



Dont think I saw anyone else post this monstrosity yet:

Not so sure I even need the drummer…
