"The first version of the Double-Guitar was actually two separate guitars. I took a 'Flying V' guitar and fastened it to a snare drum stand. This was a right-handed guitar faced in a left-handed playing position. Another guitar was strapped (right-handed) around my shoulder. I played the left side first, then the right side, then both at the same time. The audience loved it. It was then that I knew I could refine this idea and make it work!

Next, with my guitar tech, we came up with a new way to attach the two guitars. We took a flight case latch and retrofitted it to the back of each instrument. Now it took seconds to put the Double-Guitar together and take it apart.

Now that I had a 'working' Double-Guitar, the questions I had were: 'What can I do with this? What are the possibilities?" I started writing down different ways to play it. For example, both guitars at the same time in harmonies, 2 different parts at the same time, like a piano, crossing my hands over the necks, upside down, criss cross left-handed and more. The possibilities are endless!
