Makes me ill to think that back around 1976 somehow I came into possession
of a Mosrite 6/12 DOUBLENECK ! I got rid of it to get an Ibanez doubleneck
(the SG type, not the Artist) in 1978, and the Ibanez was one of the worst
guitars I've ever had. Absolutely impossible to keep the 12-neck in tune.

When I see what Mosrite doublenecks go for now, I'm physically ill...
