Thanks for the honest review. I was considering purchasing one of these for the same reasons you did - it looks like fun to switch between 12 string and 6 string. The sound was much worse than I was expecting, even taking into account the low price it still needs to perform its basic function. I’ll be watching to see how you get on with contacting gear4music and ultimately modding the guitar.
Tempted to get one and replace the 6-string neck with a bass, for that Mike Rutherford vibe...the pickups do sound terrible, but get some Iron Gear pickups in there and you'll be grand.
I built a Knoxville six string as a treat for my 60th. It took a lot of setting up and it's not great but I only have myself to blame. Replacement pickups and it's actually decent.

I bought the G4M round back acoustic 12 string for £99 around 3 months ago and am very happy with it.
I'm torn between the Tele and the Strat style double necks.
Great review. I subbed and liked.
Butterscotch blonde tele doubleneck? Classic!
Great review especially about that 3-way toggle
Thanks for your honesty. I've been very tempted to buy a guitar from this brand but I think I'll pass after watching this.
I had this in my basket on G4M. fucking deleted. Thanks man.

These guitars never work as they are supposed to because they are crap guitars. Its not Gear4Music they sell its Gear4money. In the bin with it.
