I've always thought it would be a fun idea to cut / saw a Gibson Double Neck in Half, because then you'd have TWO guitars for the price of one! On top of that, despite looking like SGs, the body shape is a little bit different so you'd have a totally unique guitar. Imagine, the lead guitarist is playing the 6 string on stage while the singer uses the 12-string for chords - the crowd would go insane! One day, I hope Gibson produces a single EDS style guitar as a limited edition.
Today is that day - I cut my Gibson Double Neck in Half

Next year you should modify these to a headless design.
I agree, the soldering exhibits glorious craftsmanship.
Excellent Content Austin. 😉
As for the 12-String, set it up for extra low drop tuning (all 12 strings)/
Have you lost your mind?!
@@hkguitar1984 It would be really cool to see him just continuously mod this thing into oblivion every April. Although I could not see anyone, no matter how insane, try to make a headless 12 string lol
What if I really want to buy this?????!
I would just glue it back together.
The most shocking part of this video was the "Stairway Of Heaven" reference...also, cutting guitars in half might put you on the "Highway For Hell".
He's Runnin' by the Devil he is!
@@charlesrense5199 a real walk to the wild side.
Free the Bird!
Should be a good guitar to play "A Song Remains to Same" on.
Not everybody is a Lead Zepplin fan
Some 6 year old Chinese kid worked really hard building that guitar and you go chop it all up
One word: Magnets. How fun would a splitable double neck be
I like that idea a lot
I think Mike Rutherford of Genesis has a set of different bodies (bass,six string, twelve string) that can be configured however he wants.
Science, bitch!
@@myoptik3x103 From memory that was a Shergold "modular" guitar . . 6, 12, and bass necks
Crimson Guitars made one a few years back, they posted a couple videos on their RUclips channel.
Hahaha, Trogly shot his joke in a foot with how well he teaches us to recognise Chibsons 😂
I thought it suddenly looked cheaper hahaha
it was an epiphone: the case was there at the end of the dream
Holy crap thank you... I was glancing at it with the sound off and was quietly freaking out 😂
@@michaelmenkes8085 not an Epiphone just the case. It is a fake Chibson.
OMG I thought it was an April fools joke when I saw the thumbnail. I thought it was photoshopped or something, the seeing him saw it in half for real with a handsaw to boot! Of course I came to the comments before finishing to make sure it was still a joke😅 ok back to the vid
The legendary "stairway of heaven." Such a great tune.
Cutting it with a hand saw makes this a high effort april fools joke!
Spoiler alert smh
Troggz should had added this little splatter segment of the video where he sawed his fingers off with a bunch of fake blood.
I wasn't even on the April fools day but the sawing made me think he should have beaver cut it😂
Amazing how much lighter they were after the separation....that sawdust must have weighed a lot !!! 😂
I would almost say “Blasphemy “! However it’s yer guitars now. Did you ever see Junior Brown’s “Git-Steel”? It’s a Fender Telecaster & Lap Steel meshed together…
@@gdavew63 the git steel is awesome 👍. I remember seeing junior on CMT back in the day. I loved his killer solo on Highway patrol! He's great player!
How could you.
@@michaelknight4041 I’ve seen Junior in concert a few times, once in the Sarett Student Center at Vanderbilt from the 6th row. Amazing how he plays that and sings too…
Not a Gibson guy myself, so the Chibson angle went right by me- but the moment I saw Trogly willingly install strap locks I knew there was something screwy going down. 🤣
I knew it was a Chibson as soon as I saw the video's thumbnail and also saw this confirmed by the dime-sized pots and cheap wires - just the April Fools Day connection had gone right past me, duh! 😅
The distorted 12 string actually sounded great. Happy April 1st, Trogly!
I mean, it’s exactly what an Octavia pedal might do, but much better note tracking.😂
I had a friend who played a 12 string in a two piece hardcore punk band. They might be on RUclips, Ribcages . One song I remember was “ain’t a woman alive”
Matt Pike for the bands High on Fire and Sleep used to use a 9string guitar (First Act) where the 3 high strings are dubbeled.
Pretty cool
he just need to learn to play good.....50 000$ guitar and play like he starte 3 month ago
You said "Stairway OF Heaven" LOL If the metric hardware and Gibsun logos didn't give it away, the dime sized pots def. did. You almost got me.
I noticed that too! 😁 when he got the song title wrong that is
Me too. I really hope he just misspoke.
I love stairway for heaven.
WYRON content pool was drying up, drastic steps had to be taken.
Your right
Stairway Of heaven 😂😂😂
noticed that too! haha
@@rooster19 he didn't want a copyright strike 😉
It is the best Lad Zeppelin song
Just don’t play it at that store called guitar Central 😂
“Stairway Of Heaven “ 😂
I liked Rick Nielsen's guitar from Cheap Trick.
PS. I don't think I would of cut the guitar in to two guitars even if it is a Chibson.
The 5 necker!
@@steveparish9210 That's the one. Have a good day.
Only Trogly would have $100,000 of guitars at his house and a $5 Harbor Freight saw instead of a Sawzall
You think trogly only has $100,000 worth of guitars at his house. Lol
@@thecreator8789yeah that’s most likely missing a zero
Who knew cutting a guitar in half could make 21lbs 3oz disappear
That six string side gives me Bo Diddley Gretsch vibes.
Once again, proof that body style has zero effect on tone! Trogly's doing the hard work so we don't have to!
That must have been a CHIBSON as this is April 1st and Trogly would never destroy a real Gibson Double-neck in this way.
Ahhh!!! The ever elusive "Gibsun" EDS-1275.
Great job! Now both halves are useful, 'cause we all know doublenecks are just awkward AF.
You couls attach a couple of latches so you could slap 'em back together just in case the need arises.
I'll have to do that to my Rick 4080, it's a little over 14.5 lbs. 👍
The fact that you did this to the Chibson now gives it value! Happy AFD!
Instantly doubled it's value!
AFD is unfortunately the extreme right wing party in Germany lol
1:12 "Stairway of Heaven" 😂
I almost had a heart attack when you started sawing it in half until I saw the wires lol!! You got me Austin!!!🎉
Did you really say "stairway OF heaven"?😂
He said “perfectly centered” 😂
The serial numbers gave it away, tell tale chi son.Not that I thought you’d do it, but I had to find the defining moment. Good one Trogley.
The headstock looks off. That gave it away for me lol.
Mike Ruthford from Genesis had a few detachable Doubleneck Bass, 6 string and 12 string halfes made from shergold guitars and basses. They were put together by using some metal bars in the back and he could combine whatever he wanted or needed. If you look closely at pictures of those doublenecks you can see where they were put together.
You should put some case latches on them so you can lock them back together or split em up. Convertible double neck
That'd be actually useful
I usually dont read the titles.. i just save whenever there new and watch em the next morning. I was not expecting that saw!😮
April Fool joke , right ? I knew it from the beginning. He loves Gibson too much to murder a real one like this.
Enuff with the April Fools already. What a hack ( no pun intended )
Wait. Stairway of heaven?
Love those double slug custom buckers and those sweet custom shop alpha mini pots. Gibson has really stepped up their game. Plus 2006 Gibson’s are the best- they always have an Asian feel to em
I liked the Epiphone doublenecks
I’ll just add that a 4” wide strap makes these type of instruments MUCH more pleasant to carry.
Tried it on a real one, and a 4” Levy’s still doesn’t help much
[Removes toothpick] "Boy, what is wrong with you?" [reinserts toothpick, stares in disbelief]
“Pete Townshend destroyed his! I can saw mine if I wanna!”
I had a feeling it was not a real Gibson when you said they stamped both head stocks with the serial number 😅😂
Trogly's early April content gets better every year
Reminiscent of the episode over on the Watch Repair Channel where Mark was looking at the current state of "how good are fake Rolexes these days?" and at the end of his eval cut the phony Rolex in half with an angle grinder. It was beautiful. :D
Waffles🧇Waffles🧇Waffles
Biker j with the dub🤝🤝!! Glad you made it!
Congratulations Biker Jon on climbing to the summit of the Mole Hill and earning a Gold Medal.
For a Chibsun their sound is gnarly! Loved the tones!
I remember another guitarist on RUclips talking about how badly he’d always wanted one of these, but could never find one. It would be pretty funny seeing his reaction to this.
You know, you could put them back together with a piano hinge and then you could fit them into a smaller case folded.
If this wasn't April 1st, you'd be on a wanted list!
Peter Williams I thought exactly the same thing!
Ah! I saw that guitar and remembered that Chibson from a previous episode! 😂😂
That's an impressively straight cut for a hand saw.
OMG! I've always dreamed of owning a Gibson double neck, watching you cut that beauty in half was just painful!😢
Lucky it wasn’t a real Gibson
April fools
Too bad this one was a "Gibsun"
Got it! That seemed totally out of character... Makes more sense now!
What about giving it away instead of splitting it in two and making it completely useless?
Nice. At least it was a wood body and not a plywood body.
Happy New Year!
I recently bought one of the Firefly bass/six string combos, and while it it essentially a Chibson, it sure is fun. Mine is 13 lbs, so not too outrageously heavy. I’m kinda sorry to see one get hacked up, even if it is for April Fools day.
I literally got mine today from my dad.
Hardshell case and everything.
Only thing I don't like about it is the tuning pegs on the 6 string get in the way when I'm playing low on the bass neck.
But how fun of a guitar huh?!
@@mykuntstynx9463 With you on both fronts. The design is definitely a little awkward, but still a hoot!
April's fool has gone to far...😅
Not a bad job...all you need is a spare cherry chibson sg body & you can chop it, get a jointer & put the upper/lower wings back on.
The music during the 'sawing in half' sequence was hilarious.
i didnt think he had the guts to chop it in half
Can I have the twelve sting half? lol
I love it. Reminds me of Pete Shelly’s guitar in the Buzzcocks
does their string change only have to be done by hand or is there a proper key that is easy to turn the tuner?
This is so much fun. Good job as always Austin.
Yeah, you did it. 👌
Edit: I'm feeling bad about the guitar anyway....
I want the twelve string side
My heart is screaming "NOOOOooooooo"
I never thought I’d see Austin loose his mind. I’ve now seen everything. lol…
Me too! I was like what is he doing??
@@jonathanhudak2059 straight up. how could he do such a thing to a 13k guitar
@@jonathanhudak2059 Check the calendar
I’ll give you $5 for the six string side 😂😂😂😂
Salutations Austin!
I couldn’t believe that you were actually cutting a Gibson double neck in half!!!
I was very relieved to find out that it was actually a Chibson, however, I would have taped it first where you were planning to cut, and then used a circular saw to get a nice straight and clean cut, and then installed a special bracket so you could reattach them later on, which would have made it a very unique detachable double neck guitar.
Someone else recommended using magnets, but I suspect that might not work satisfactorily, but it might be worth looking into.
Both halves actually sound fairly decent, and the weight is much more manageable.
I have been wanting a Gibson, (or Epiphone) double neck for years, however, I have not been able to find one to fit my budget yet, and the local guitar shop has had so many other options that have turned out to be a bit of a distraction, not that I’m complaining, as they are usually guitars that I have had on my acquisition list also, and I like to help keep the shop in business.
Eventually one day I will find one, and add it to my collection.
This was a great April Fool’s Day video!
Thank you for posting these videos!
Please have an excellent and awesome day!
☀️✨🎸
1:12 Stairway "of" Heaven? never heard of that song Trogly...LOL
Aprils fools Chibson finally fines a use
Holley how do you have the guts to do that 😂 it has to be a chibson
3:13 I watch in absolute horror as the resale value plummets
This red is gorgeous. I have the Gibson too but with white with gold trim. I used it while playing the big hotels in the Catskills. I loved it, I used to try and let the glare from the spotlights zap the guests. They laughed and got into it, my band boss grumbled lol. It’s very hefty and awkward to play. It sounded excellent and our shows were only an hour or so so it wasn’t all that bad. I never used it for a full 4hr gig. I’m still playing but now using a Gibson LP tribute bass DC instead of lead. I’d rather be in a pocket than out front. I’ve done my time lol
That's awesome!
I remember you mentioning wanting to do this in your 2021 collection video (i think?), cool to see you finally go through with it!
Yo
😉
Nice pick up with great alignment.👍🤘✌️❤️
I noticed the laser printed serial number and the grayish looking Kluson tuners. I was thinking, this has to be a joke...then I realized, today is April 1st. Good one 😂
A real big thank you for the Viewer/Fan who gifted this guitar to Austin.
Funny Stuff here
Good evening HK ! hivoltage1999 here. Happy April Fools day. Hope you are well. Been away for a while. Broke another phone (again). Lost my handle & thumbnail (again). Just never got around to trying figuring out how to get them back. Been working crazy hours.
@@timreed-dq3nx Hey there Sir 😉
Sometimes its just easier to start new.
I do hope all has been well, glad to hear from you.
This April fools brought to you by Chibson
👍
Well done Andy on earning a Silver Medal.
Trogly mentions Stairway OF Heaven. It’s Stairway TO heaven. Cool kids just call it Stairway, but I’m too old and not cool enough. Keep spoiling us with new content Trogly. I watch so much I think I recognize his voice anywhere.
Oh God, that was so cathartic, thank you! So glad you used a hand saw, it wouldn't have been quite as fun if you'd used power tools.
✌️
Peace Peace Hector for making the podium and earning a Bronze Medal
@@sgt.grinch3299 ✌️
Surely April fools !!! 😅
I forgot yesterday was April fools day and also didn’t notice this was posted yesterday, so this fully had me going 😂
I would be tempted to try cutting the top off of the 12 string part and crafting it onto the top of the six string so it would look similar to an SG
Nice one Trogly, a perfect video for April Fools Day!!!!
You've triggered a multitude with this!!! 😂😂😂
Trogly you absolute mad man! I love the videos and this is a great lil April 1st
One of the best April fool jokes I've seen for a long time.
Danelectro made a bunch of these in many variations over the years (those might be easier to chop in half😂)
I know Nels Cline (from Wilco) found a custom built 12/baritone one in a pawn shop once. He was able to get ahold of the then retired maker, who got quite upset because that was a custom order from someone he knew, and the guy goes and pawns it off!
Once Trogly starts talking about concerns he has with actually playing the guitar, you know something's up
I can't believe that YOU would do this. YOU, man who fully understands and appreciates instruments for what they are. YOU, a lover of guitars. How could you?😲🥺😦😧😥
True, I don't understand what is funny about destroying a perfectly good instrument, just because teh name si fake and some parts are noch toroginal USA.
Somebody out there, not being able to aford a real one, would have loved to have it and play it wholeheartedly.
I'm amazed at how much better the 6 and 12 strings sounded after they were separated! Do you think I could order one that way from the custom shop, or should I have you order another and have you make those modifications for me??? 😀
Mr trogly I thought you had finally went over the edge there. . Great joke. Your guitar playing has gotten pretty darn good thanks for the videos
At 1:14 this dude calls stairway to heaven "stairway of heaven"
Great idea! IDK why more people don't do this!
Ahhh the old classic…..stairway of heaven 😊
I Knew It Was A Fake. 😂😂😂… love it !
Loved the spoof with Chibson(s) - I have the epipoop version and that is HEAVY as well- any more than 3 songs standing and I'm done for.
I knew this was probably an April fools joke but It was tough to watch you saw that in half anyway.
Despite being a "Chibson", i still found it HEARTWRENCHING when you sawed that thing in half
As soon as I recognized the double slug pickups on the 6 string, I realized it was a fake... LOL
I was about to give trogly some street cred until I realized it was a Cibson
