Hunting for a doubleneck

Looking for a Mosrite or similar double neck. Prefer guitar and bass combination but will consider others. Please let me know if you have one. Thanks all!

Guitar/bass is real hard to find in a Mosrite. You just missed this one: https://reverb.com/item/435639-mosrite- ... 3-sunburst

Yeah... I saw it on Gbase and tried to buy it but it had already sold, bummer. Thanks for the heads up. :cry:
Those guys we're cool to deal with though, I bought a Gruggett Velvet touch from them that is very similar to the guitar I got from you. It has a maple neck and checkered binding and the same long scale. It's headstock is different, like a strat/bottle opener, and it dates to 1992. They are both very special guitars and look lovely together. I'll get around to posting some pics one of these days.
Anyways, the hunt for a doubleneck continues...

Are you talking about Earl/Robbie/Elisha's Brass Rail?

I have one very serious doubleneck left:

No, I made an offer on it but didn't get it, it looked amazing.

The one I got is a 'Velvet Touch', here's a few pics of their pics. Better ones to come...

I've never seen that one before. Congrats! I dig it! I also have a Gruggett from the same era with that same wacky headstock design.

Hey Stevie Is this the one I saw at the Columbus guitar show? I was the guy with the Blue Dobro. Those are Shweeet!

That is a nice looking guitar right there! Is that also a 26" scale? Might be sacrilege to say it here on the forums, but I enjoy playing these long scale Gruggetts more than my Mosrites. But then, I'd probably have never heard of Bill if I hadn't gotten into Mosrites...

Not sure on the Columbus show, if it was there it was in the possession of the Southside guys.

PS - Adam, one of these days I'm going to get a bunch of money together and come see you. Your guitars never cease to amaze me.
