I'm hoping it's chambered. Maybe if you had two people in the band playing these things, one could play bass while the other played the guitar, then they could tag-team.

Holy $$$$$$$$$$$$ only $400, I would be all over that if it was in Portland, it would make a great compliment to my T-40!
See: He plants the subconscious image of a lighter in your head, to get you to think the instrument will be lighter. It's all a subliminal advertising plot, really.
nothing makes a t-40 lighter, unless you compare it to the solid brass ibanez 78lb guitar.. no kidding 78lbs!See: He plants the subconscious image of a lighter in your head, to get you to think the instrument will be lighter. It's all a subliminal advertising plot, really.
the t-40 oly weighs like 40 right (hence the name)
Wow, they put the longest scale instrument on the bottom. That means that you'd have to hike this up high just to reach the bass easily unless you have crazy long arms!
Going between this thread and my own double neck bass thread, is truly surreal...
Hope you guys are alright with me posting a few 6 strings. Seems appropriate to the thread;
Maybe this guy should buy it?;

I can't top that 8-neck monster, but here's a 4-neck guitar that Mike Lipe and I built for Michael Angelo Batio a few years back. The four guitars are completely independent and are mounted to a shaped aluminum back plate. They can be reconfigured onto other back plates to make different shapes; a shallow X, a wide X, a double V, single V, etc. He later had a motorized stand made for it, where the necks would move around to different configurations while he played and hit foot pedals. Show Biz. We kept it down to under 20 lbs.
That's me modeling it in my shop. Does it make me look like a rock star?
Yes, that's Michael in the post above, with the silver X-shaped 4-neck. That's an earlier instrument that was made by Chandler. It was really heavy, close to 30 lbs. It disassembled into two flight cases....and one of them got stolen! His fans demanded that he continue the 4-neck show, which led to him commissioning us to build a newer, higher tech, lighter, replacement. And it comes apart and goes into one reasonably sized flight case.

I read that it's like playing a gig with a Twin Reverb strapped around your neck! Personally, I think it sounds a little...'tinny',

It's for those times when you're doing "Stairway" and have to cover the bass parts too.[Invalid or Expired Link Removed]
LOL! An all in one axe?......
Or any one of the many songs in which you would have to change between 6 string, 12 string and bass - you know All Those Songs.
Of course they forgot about all those songs which need those plus an acoustic.... not enough necks really!
Rick's is deliberately ridiculous - he MEANT it as a joke.
Chris Squire and JPJ are kindof over the top kinda guys too...
Also, theirs aren't Tennessees, they were high end axes - if you intend to impress with shock and awe don't do it with a cheap guitar.
