Nah! This is real although I can't figure out how you're supposed to play it.

Geez, ain't you people ever heard of the 12 Man Group before?

Oh, they like to drink here...

Well, that one may not exist, but Rick Neilson, from Cheap Trick, has a guitar with 5 necks! He says in a interview I read somewhere, he had Hamer make it just for fun (to see if they could do it!) and it is heavy as a b***h!!

Cool pic tho!

Rick has owned several 5 neck Hamers, and he always brings one on tour.
His Dad owned a musical instrument store, so Rick grew up surrounded by guitars.
Anyone know how many hundred are in his collection these days?

Great posts, guys.. I'm 99% certain the picture I posted is some photoshop ******y, but seeing those 5-necked ones crack me up... and seeing Rick's Hamer makes me thing LP players should quit complaining about weight.. LOL

One guitar I always liked is Steve Vai's heart-shaped 3-neck:

I've actually played it. Not bad except for some really horrible buzz on the 83rd fret.

Then you'll get a kick out of these.

Holy god.. lol

I'm looking at these, and knowing my distaste for changing strings, I can't imagine taking two days to restring these things.. lol

File this under 'When luthiers attack".
The only functional one of the lot is JPJs mandobassogatobeast. I've seen him use it.
