jdogric12 8 Report post Posted July 25, 2014 Any ideas on this? I thought both necks had the separate tailpiece. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Epiphone-SG-G-1275-Electric-Guitar-/321467953178?pt=Guitar&hash=item4ad8fbb01a Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Aparrently, when he flipped the handing, all he did was flip the nut and reverse-order the saddles, on both necks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
brad1 517 Report post Posted July 25, 2014 Looks different than all I've ever seen. Looks like somebody did not like the separate tp and replaced it with a new bridge/tailpiece combo. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Neiko98 0 Report post Posted July 25, 2014 I would suggest getting the Serial Number from the guy and looking up exactly what the year was and research the year. But for 400 bucks that's a steal anyways. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jonnyg 41 Report post Posted July 27, 2014 The 12 string side of that twin neck is fitted with a Gotoh (or copy of) bridge. It's a great solution to intonating a 12 string. The 6 thicker strings come through the body and the other 6 are attached to the bridge back (through body and toploading in Fender terms). The saddles are like modern Fender saddles but the 6 thinner strings have their own adjustable saddle to one side. A picture says a thousand words I have one of these bridges on a Strat-a-like 12 string and it works brilliantly. Only down side is the saddles are hard zinc which (IMO) may take a bit of zing out of the sound. This is still a way better bridge than having a TOM and Stoptail for a 12 string.
