TOP 3 GUITARISTS THAT USE A DOUBLE-NECK GUITAR

There’s always going to be somebody who pushes the boundaries of innovation and invention when it comes to making music. Today’s article is all about world famous artists that have been seen using the double-neck guitar, one of ZERPCORP's BARCELONA best sellers.

Back in the late 70's, the was a wave of artists wanting new sounds for their music that weren't available at the time. Some used a double neck for different tunings or as a novelty to bring something different at the studio. 

1- Don Felder

Don Felder is known for many things like having an incredible guitar collection but he is also known for playing the famous song Hotel California with a double-neck guitar. It is impossible to think of him playing that song with any other guitar, Don Felder really does know how to use a double-neck guitar to it's full potential. ¿Do you imagine listening to Hotel California without a double-neck guitar?



2- Jimmy Page


Jimmy Page could probably be considered a double-neck guitar ambassador, everyone that has one or is dreaming on one day having one in their possession can't deny that Jimmy Page has influenced them in a major way trough incredible songs like Stairway to Heaven  or The Song Remains The Live. When he plays the guitar in his home studio he uses all types of guitars but on top of a stage it's the double-neck guitar always. Can't blame him choosing a double-neck guitar, they aren't special for no reason. 
Enjoy this stunning solo by Jimmy Page. 



3- Michael Angelo Batio

Michael Angelo is a must on this list, who says the necks have to always face the same direction? At ZERPCORP we like to do it different and so does Michael Angelo, he got a custom made guitar giving him endless possibilities of new sounds and an even more unique style. 

Our Team member and co-founder Jan Ferrero actually had the honour to have his custom guitar in his arms and surprisingly, it's not as heavy as you might think. 

Enjoy this master piece performed by Michael Angelo in mid 2011. You won't regret it.
