The six string electric was made once again by Andy Manners. This time, specifically for the purpose of being joined to the 10 string.
It incorporates an ample 12 string neck, and aged but rewound demazio humbucker pickups, with a half way cut off.
The two guitars are bound together using leather and bootlace. After cutting the leather suits for the guitars, they sat around for six months while I figured out how to manage it.
Then it took about five hundred hours to bind them together. It's been done in a totally non-destructive way; so they could be seperated again, leaving no marks (but... hm... not in a hurry!)
More details to follow - And of course, recordings.
You can see the 6 string being played in the video of The Mandrake Project by clicking this link.
