My Frankenstein 12-String & Bass 6 Danelectro Double-Neck - Ask Zac 277

When you get the gig playing auxiliary and utility guitar for a world-renowned Telecaster master like Brad Paisley, you run into a unique problem: How do you cover parts that include electric 12-string chime, and 6-string bass parts in a fast-paced live set without swapping guitars every single song? My solution? Build a monster, constructed out of late-90s Danelectro parts. In this video, I’m doing a deep-dive breakdown of my Frankenstein double-neck guitar. It features an electric 12-string on top and a baritone/6-string bass on the bottom. I’ll walk you through how I sourced the late-90s Danelectro components to get that authentic lipstick-pickup chime, the unique challenges of piecing it together, the electronics/switching setup, and exactly how I’m using it out on the road during Brad’s tour to fill out the live sonic landscape. GEAR & SPECS: Custom Double-Neck Specs: Built using late-90s Danelectro parts & lipstick pickups. Strings Used: D'Addario Signal Chain: Mirage Comp, Sawdust Overdrive, Boss TR-2, Strymon El Capistan, 1968 Fender Princeton Reverb. www.truetone.com To Support the Channel: Patreon   / askzac   https://ask-zac-shop.fourthwall.com Tip jar: https://paypal.me/AskZac Venmo @AskZac #DoubleNeckGuitar #Danelectro #BradPaisley #TourGear #GuitarBuild #12String #BaritoneGuitar #SixStringBass #Guitarist #GuitarTone #LiveMusic #GuitarDemo #Luthier
