1975 Ibanez 2402 Double Axe 6/12 Double Neck Electric Guitar (w/ OHSC) (MIJ Fujigen)

Made by the Fujigen factory from 1974-77 and sold in the USA and Europe, the Ibanez 2402 is one of the rarest and most highly collectable of the Ibanez "lawsuit era" guitars. A highly unique, elusive and completely impractical instrument, it is based off of Gibson's EDS-1275 double neck model and features 2 bolt on laminated birch necks, one 12 string and one 6 string, Ibanez Super 70 humbuckers and a mahogany body with laminated birch top. This particular 2402 was crafted in 1975 and retains a high level of originality and presents in excellent condition.

Neck wise, you've got two of them! Both necks are virtually identical in specification and feel, with slim D profiles that feel very nice and compact in the hands. Sporting Gibson scale length, rosewood fingerboards and beautifully crafted parallelogram inlays, the frets are in amazing shape with almost no wear on them whatsoever at approximately 98% fret life. Both nuts have been replaced, likely at different times, but are in great shape. Playability on both necks is excellent with no buzz or dead spots.

Electronics are all original aside from a replaced Switchcraft jack socket with Ibanez Super 70s Humbuckers powering the heart and soul of this double neck. The pickups are a low output variety with plenty of top end clarity, mid-range bark and thick bottom end. Capable of a wide variety of sonic styles, these pickups respond very well to low, medium or high gain.

All original side from the nuts and jack socket, this 2402 has been professionally setup and serviced with 10-46s on both necks and is playing wonderfully. Condition wise, this is probably one of the best 2402s on the market. Condition is truly excellent with a few light dings, dents and chips, but this is to be expected for such a large and cumbersome instrument. There are no structural issues, cracks or breaks on the guitar. Comes with it's original hard shell case, also in excellent condition!
