"Don Felder of the Eagles used this white double-neck guitar for both the six-string and twelve-string parts of "Hotel California" in live performances. He played the twelve-string neck with a capo (a bar clipped between frets to raise the pitch of the open strings) on the seventh fret for the intro and verses, and the six-string neck for the choruses and guitar solos. Gibson introduced its double-neck instruments in 1958 with the EMS-1235, featuring a standard guitar neck and a short-scale "mandolin" neck tuned an octave higher. In 1962, the company issued the EBS-1250 double bass, pairing a standard guitar neck and bass neck.
