If you’re a fan of Guns N’ Roses, then you’re probably familiar with the iconic double-necked guitar that Slash used to play some of the most iconic solos and riffs in history. Rally’s #SLASH is a 1-of-1 prototype Factory Black 1966 Gibson Doubleneck guitar – approved by Slash before Gibson’s new release of 125 limited edition replicas.
“The very first prototype that I got of this guitar hands–down sounds better than the original from the ‘60s.”
— Slash / On First Playing the Gibson EDS-1275 Doubleneck Replica
