I've been searching the internet for a long time for info on my double neck 4/6. Made in March 1980 it has a single pickup for the bass and two double pickups for the six-string. 20 frets on each neck and sunburst pattern on body.
Haven't found a photo, model name or anything so whatever info you have would be appreciated.

Yeah, I suppose that would make the whole process a little easier. I'll try to get my hands on a digital camera a.s.a.p.

Thanks

It's the exact same guitar as in the first photo (Musash's). The responding posts seem to provide a little more info than I had before but if anyone has anything to add please do so. Thanks Johns for pointing me in the right direction.

Oops, sorry. Just looked at Musash's photo again and it shows a 4/12 while mine looks exactly the same but a 4/6.

OK, all you Studio doubleneck experts, what's the model number for a 1980 4/6? Here's the picture Pappyo sent me.

Typical follow-up question many have asked before...

Any idea of the value?

It looks like it is in great shape, these don't have that much value.

They only made

34 in 1980
31 in 1979

So very limited production.

Thanks Jim. I didn't know so few were made but back then the 6/12 was more sought after.
