Nice and a bit strange animals these! First time I ever laid eyes on a Gibson doubleneck must have been somewhere in the 60's, in a picture from the movie Spinout, and in the hands of Elvis. A six-string bass on top of a six-string guitar. I was flabbergasted! That animal! And Elvis P! An unlikely combination! Next time around, it was Jimmy Page. Somehow the strange guitar kinda suited him better.
One would have thought that there was some kind of readyness for the Elvis-Gibson-pic, as the photo of Dylan with the F Jazz was already spread through the record business. But Elvis...
What's next? Cat Stevens with a Bach T-bird? Enrico Caruso with a double-bass? Fontella Bass with a guitar? Will it ever end?
