Default Emerald Guitar is planning to make a Doubleneck

Doublenecks are really niche instruments but I have grown to really love the possibilities it brings and to think of it in Carbon. Amazing. I am waiting in line. Forgot this was already posted, I guess I am just to excited. Steve

this model will be a very exciting one! i've heard that it will have by default a 12 string neck and a 6 string neck, but other configurations will be available on custom order (like bass necks -fretted or frettless-, baritone, and so)

I just found this post. I'm actually getting three doublenecks from Alistair. One is a Baritone/12 string, double six string with the additional neck for either Nashville tuning, heavier strings or alternate tunings. The final will be a 6 string and 12 string.

I don't know what they will cost yet, but I'm sure excited about it.

Not fair one at a time. I will probably be waiting for my 12 and 6 for a while? I am about to retire you need to respect your elders. I only have so long to play. Are you feeling sorry for me yet?
