Product Description

zZounds is an
authorized Gibson dealer

Originally introduced as a hollowbody doubleneck model in 1958, the EDS-1275 assumed its more familiar SG-style body shape in 1962. Always one of Gibson's more esoteric models, the 1275 got its moment in the sun when Jimmy Page began using it for live performances of the Led Zeppelin classic "Stairway to Heaven." Thirty years later, Page is still the artist most closely associated with this model. zZounds is an authorized dealer of Gibson products.

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. Gibson EDS-1275 Customer Review

Sound: It really brings out that gibson sound that most people love. All the equipment i use is just a cable and any kind of marshall amp. Feature: The double neck feature helps because it allows you to play many songs on one guitar that normally you need to own multiple guitars for. Quality: No errors with the making. And as with all gibson guitars it is made with high quality. Value: It is easily worth the price Manufacturer Support: I have had no need to contact gibson about their product. But i do know that they are easy to reach. I have found no need what-so-ever to upgrade this guitar so i have not tried. The Wow Factor: Every one i know loves this guitar. Whenever i have this guitar they beg me to be able to play it. They worship it like a god. Overall: It has every thing that I could ever want in a guitar.

"Gibson EDS 1275 Review"

Sound: Because of all the mahogany coupled with the maple necks, the clean sound is crystalline and "crunch" is great - really "chugs" through a Marshall half stack with the 6 string neck and excellent sustain. I've had 3 different doublenecks. This by far is the best sounding. Feature: The choice of tonewoods is excellent as noted. Gives a 6/12 player great versatility on stage without having to swap instruments. Simple, effective controls. Unlike one of my other doublenecks built by a company whose name contains 6 letters and begins with "C", both necks sound great. The "C" 6 string neck is totally worthless for sound, 12 string neck is pretty good. Ease of Use: Getting great sounds is easy. Necks are very playable and comfortable although limited by the number of accessible frets. Rick 360/12 owners will appreciate the 12 string neck width! Notwithstanding the foregoing favorable comments, this has to be the most poorly-balanced doubleneck of all time. Extremely neck heavy. I attached a belt hook to the strap on the body end. The "C" doubleneck mentioned earlier was perfectly balanced so it CAN be done. Gibson just didn't do it. Quality: This instrument is actually a factory second with a flawed joint attaching the top mahogany wing to the rest of the body which also imparted a small cosmetic irregularity. It eventually got loose and I had to have some glue injected. Didn't impact the sound any and it was lots cheaper. Value: This one was. New ones are way overpriced like all Gibson instruments. Manufacturer Support: I've never had to deal with Gibson but have heard it's a nightmare. The Wow Factor: Stage versatility, great sound. Overall: I'd probably replace it. Have owned it since the mid-'70s
