Epiphone EDS-1275 Doubleneck Electric Guitar, Rosewood Fretboard - Vintage Cherry

An Enduring Icon - The Epiphone EDS-1275 Doubleneck Electric Guitar, Rosewood Fretboard in Vintage Cherry

Chosen by rock legends, progressive innovators, and jazz fusion greats alike, the EDS-1275 has earned its status as an enduring icon. Instantly recognizable and exceptionally adaptable, it allows players to move seamlessly between six-string and 12-string parts without interrupting their performance. Epiphone is proud to unveil a newly refreshed version of this classic instrument. The Epiphone EDS-1275 Double Neck is built with a solid mahogany body, delivering the warm, midrange-focused tone that has long defined this model. Comfort-oriented beveled edges and a double-cutaway design provide effortless access across the entire length of both necks.

The dual mahogany necks are set into the body to enhance sustain and resonance, and each features a fast-feeling SlimTaper 60s C profile that supports smooth, agile playing. Both necks are topped with bound, genuine rosewood fretboards, outfitted with 20 medium jumbo frets and accented with stylish pearloid split parallelogram inlays. A 12" fretboard radius on each neck ensures a comfortable feel for chords and leads alike.

Each Kalamazoo-style headstock is fitted with dependable Epiphone Deluxe tuning machines with keystone buttons. Together with GraphTech nuts, they help maintain stable tuning—especially important when managing all 18 strings—so you can spend more time playing and less time making adjustments. The Epiphone logo is also featured on each headstock as a mother of pearl inlay.

A pair of LockTone Tune-O-Matic bridges allows for precise control over action and intonation, while claw-style tailpieces provide secure string anchoring and make restringing straightforward. All hardware is finished in nickel plating.

Each neck is equipped with a pair of Epiphone’s highly regarded ProBucker pickups, featuring a ProBucker 2 in the neck positions and a slightly hotter ProBucker 3 in the bridge positions. This combination delivers consistent, balanced output across every pickup setting. The 12-string neck features pickups with nickel-plated covers, while the six-string neck uses uncovered pickups for a slightly brighter and more assertive tonal edge. Free of unwanted noise yet rich and punchy, they produce everything from shimmering, chiming cleans to powerful leads and full-bodied distortion.

The control layout is designed for versatility without sacrificing simplicity. Each neck includes its own master volume and tone controls, all using premium CTS potentiometers. Independent three-pickup selector switches are assigned to each neck, while a third three-way switch lets you select either neck individually or engage both at once for quick, seamless transitions.

By combining the functionality of a dual-pickup 12-string and a dual-pickup six-string in one instrument, the EDS-1275 delivers outstanding tonal range. Order an EDS-1275 and experience the playability, sound quality, and tonal flexibility that have made it a go-to choice for generations of legendary guitarists. An Epiphone hardshell case is included for secure storage and transport.
