Available now is a rare vintage 1978 Ibanez Artist 2640 double neck guitar. Crafted in the renowned Japanese FugiGen factory, this exceptional double neck pairs a 12-string neck on top with a 6-string neck below, offering unmatched tonal versatility and iconic stage presence.

Constructed with a solid mahogany body and smooth maple necks topped with ebony fretboards, it delivers exceptional sustain, articulation, and playability across both necks. Equipped with factory Super 80 "Flying Finger" humbuckers and Tri-Sound switching options, it covers everything from shimmering 12-string chime to fat, driving 6-string humbucker crunch. With a gorgeous German carved maple top, Antique Violin finish, and gold hardware this guitar has all the high end appointments to complete the impeccable vibe of this double neck.

This instrument has been fully inspected by our in-house luthier. It exhibits honest play wear consistent with a late-1970s vintage instrument. Please review all photos for complete cosmetic detail, and feel free to reach out with any questions!
