Epiphone EDS-1275 Doubleneck Electric Guitar - Vintage Cherry

EDS-1275 Doubleneck

One of the most versatile guitars ever created, now available with rosewood fretboards

Chosen by rock legends, progressive innovators, and jazz fusion greats alike, the EDS-1275 has earned its status as an enduring icon. Instantly recognizable and exceptionally adaptable, it allows players to move seamlessly between six-string and 12-string parts without interrupting their performance.

Epiphone is proud to unveil a newly refreshed version of this classic instrument. The Epiphone EDS-1275 Doubleneck is built with a solid mahogany body, delivering the warm, midrange-focused tone that has long defined this model. Comfort-oriented beveled edges and a double-cutaway design provide effortless access across the entire length of both necks.

The dual mahogany necks are set into the body to enhance sustain and resonance, and each features a fast-feeling Slim Taper ™ profile that supports smooth, agile playing. Both necks are topped with bound, genuine rosewood fretboards, outfitted with 20 medium jumbo frets and accented with stylish pearloid split parallelogram inlays. A 12" fretboard radius on each neck ensures a comfortable feel for chords and leads alike.

Each Kalamazoo-style headstock is fitted with dependable Epiphone Deluxe tuning machines with keystone buttons. Together with Graph Tech® nuts, they help maintain stable tuning - especially important when managing all 18 strings - so you can spend more time playing and less time making adjustments. The Epiphone logo is also featured on each headstock as a mother of pearl inlay.

A pair of LockTone™ Tune-O-Matic™ bridges allows for precise control over action and intonation, while claw-style tailpieces provide secure string anchoring and make restringing straightforward. All hardware is finished in nickel plating.

Each neck is equipped with a pair of Epiphone's highly regarded ProBucker™ pickups, featuring a ProBucker 2 in the neck positions and a slightly hotter ProBucker 3 in the bridge positions. This combination delivers consistent, balanced output across every pickup setting. The 12-string neck features pickups with nickel-plated covers, while the six-string neck uses uncovered pickups for a slightly brighter and more assertive tonal edge. Free of unwanted noise yet rich and punchy, they produce everything from shimmering, chiming cleans to powerful leads and full-bodied distortion.

The control layout is designed for versatility without sacrificing simplicity. Each neck includes its own master volume and tone controls, all using premium CTS® potentiometers. Independent three-pickup selector switches are assigned to each neck, while a third three-way switch lets you select either neck individually or engage both at once for quick, seamless transitions.

By combining the functionality of a dual-pickup 12-string and a dual-pickup six-string in one instrument, the EDS-1275 delivers outstanding tonal range. Order an EDS-1275 and experience the playability, sound quality, and tonal flexibility that have made it a go-to choice for generations of legendary guitarists. An Epiphone hardshell case is included for secure storage and transport.
