Description

Two is better than one.....This Gibson anomaly is a striking instrument. Small PAF Humbuckers adorn a double neck mandolin combination for the player looking to amplify their unique sound. This instrument is a collectors piece in a beautiful white color. This EMS-1235 has seen some screen time by fanatics over the years and has made its way to our showroom. It is incredible to have such a unique instrument available that is very a-typical from many Gibson collectibles we see. An avid connoisseur of Gibsons will find this guitar to sit in its original condition with small areas of Factory touchup from the control layout mockup process and some hand tooling in one of the pickup cavities. This is possibly one of the last double neck hollow bodies to leave the factory.Comes with the original hardshell case
