FORKS Posted October 5, 2005 Share Posted October 5, 2005 (edited) if you look carefully one is a 12 string and one is fretlessthat provides two different necks to use in different situations.the other three i believe he keeps in different tunings. and one of them has a tremelo bar on it. just different guitars for different situations combined into onehe doesnt play more than one at the same time, which i know is what some of you were thinking Edited October 5, 2005 by FORKS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max™ Posted October 5, 2005 Share Posted October 5, 2005 Jesus christ. How the hell do you play the bottom neck? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forsaken Posted October 5, 2005 Share Posted October 5, 2005 lol that many necks on a guitar is just pointless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stratomaster Posted October 5, 2005 Share Posted October 5, 2005 I think you'd break your back playing that for a few hours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twistedthoughts Posted October 6, 2005 Share Posted October 6, 2005 lol that many necks on a guitar is just pointless.<{POST_SNAPBACK}>I agree...although when I watched the G3 concert with Satch, Vai and Yngwie, I thought that Steve Vai's 3 neck guitar was ridiculous......until he played it......WELL.Very well actually. I must admit though, he had to sit down to use it which kinda sucks. I doubt anybody could even sit with that 5 neck guitar and still play it. It seems far less practical than 5 separate guitars to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pepeterry Posted October 6, 2005 Share Posted October 6, 2005 i think that it is only for having a guitar with five necks. i dont think he plays with it. Up to three necks is a lot so 5! come on! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meatheads Posted October 7, 2005 Share Posted October 7, 2005 Rick Neilsen of CT play this during Surrender at most of their concerts. I've seen them live many times. He uses all 5 necks during the song. Plus, he runs around stage with this thing strapped on.Also- Neilsen has probably one of the largest and greatest guitar collections of anyone on this planet (including Slash)...hundreds or rareties and custom models.
