Early 50's double neck walnut Fender Trapezoid. Original condition with original case. Original electronics, good unmolested condition, and excellent sounding steel with expected wear from use and age. A lamination seam is visable on the front of the steel but is solid. Case very worn, but still functional. $1,350.00

When these guitars are in great shape like this one Gary has up for sale, they SING like very few others.
That's why Chris Scruggs and one of his mentors, Kayton Roberts, favor these fantastic guitars. Wish I had some extra cash, Gary!!!!

Thanks Mark,
At the moment I have 3 of them. I'm selling the two I have listed and keeping a very beat up blonde double neck. They all sound trapezoid perfect. My plan was to offer Trapezoid pickups on the "53 King Pin Model" but it simply cost too much to prototype and manufacture the pickups.

I do believe the's a Dual Professional. I think the 3 neck was called a Custom.
