6-12 string choices

[KevinUK]

Hi Guys,

A couple of questions for all and sundry.

Has anyone any views on the gigging usability of a twin neck Silo ? Is it a comfortable/clumsy guitar to wear for 3 hours, and

Did EBMM ever despatch a twin neck in Black Sugar spec ?

Cheers

I tried a double neck silo and I could not have worn that for 3 hours!! Too heavy.

There's no way any twin neck guitar could be comfortable for 3 hours!

Looks cool on-stage but impractical.

thanks guys, that is what I thought so will leave well alone. I use a 12 string for 4 numbers out of 40 and manage quite well with swift changes between relevant numbers.

thanks

I've seen some pitch shifter stompboxes which can (sort of) emulate 12-string guitars. At least for strumming chords, it works reasonably well with a band. Maybe if one of those with a piezo-powered guitar may suit you.
