You might want to double* that estimate.

Haha my back still aches looking at that thing. Gonna pull out the SG and do an Dream Police.

It's like they ran out of ideas for the different necks, so they threw on a five-string bass next to the four string. Why?
Chris Squire of Yes used a three-neck bass. The first neck was a guitar, second was a regular bass and the third was a fretless. He strung the guitar neck up as a three-string bass using the inbetweeny strings as octave strings. Again, the fretless just seems a bit pointless. Doubleneck would be fine.
Seriously though, I've been starting to hanker after a doubleneck, either a guitar/bass or guitar/baritone combo... and I hate myself for it.

The fretless makes sense, but, a triple neck guitar just seems unwieldy.
I hear ya on the double neck hankering and feeling bad about it I kinda like the double neck Rickenbacker bass/guitar that Geddy Lee plays in the Xanadu video

The singer in Rush is THE guy.
Geddy Lee is the so fucking manly, we just aren't able to see it, he's like x-rays, or some other non visible-to-human-eyes/ears spectrum. He is so fucking man that he starts to come off as feminine.

He's such a man he doesn't even have a penis?

FUCK YEAH RUSH!
I'm thinking about building a doubleneck bass/guitar for my friend. He plays both in his band. That Ric is sweet.

FUCK.YEAH.
I sometimes think it'd be cool to have a guitar/bass double neck, but then I realize I'd rather just switch instruments.

Depends what your band setup is like. I'm trying to get a band together but I'm probably going to be the only guy playing an actual instrument, so I'm going to need to cover several bases. I have a POG, I just like the idea of a nice Gretsch doubleneck, too. There's a baritone/guitar doubleneck in the electromatic range that I've seen here and there for as low as £650 secondhand in silver sparkle. Stupidly over the top. I really want one.
