1980s Robin Octave Double Neck Mint With Case

guitarz.blogspot.com:

There's got to be a more convenient way to play a guitar duet than sharing the same doubleneck guitar. But if you and a buddy are really hellbent on re-creating Jimmy and Stevie Ray Vaughan's party piece, then this 1980s Texas-made Robin doubleneck is for you!

It's a Strat-style guitar with one standard-scale neck and an octave neck, and is currently listed on eBay with a Buy It Now price of US $3,562.50.

Robin Ranger octave guitar from the 1980s

guitarz.blogspot.com:

From Texas's very own Robin Guitars here we see one of their earlier instruments from the 1980s, the Robin Ranger octave guitar.

Designed for guitarists who want to play up in the mandolin range but who want to use the familiar guitar tuning. It's also great for doubling up guitar parts.

This guitar is currently listed on eBay with a starting price of $400 and a Buy It Now price of $750.

It also gives me the excuse to show this video (below) of the Vaughan brothers, Stevie Ray and Jimmy, playing the same Robin doubleneck guitar with 6-string plus 6-string octave necks.
