Lot 4. Don Felder’s Signed Epiphone G-1275 DoubleNeck Electric Guitar and Signed Art Print. A Don Felder signed Epiphone G-1275 alpine white double-neck 6-sting/12-string electric guitar. Featuring a double-cutaway solid mahogany body, mahogany neck, and rosewood fingerboard, the instrument is equipped with Alnico Classic and Alnico Classic Plus humbucker pickups. Manufactured in 2021, the reverse of the headstock is engraved with the serial number, “21031530628.” Felder has signed boldly in black felt pen horizontally across the bottom of the body, “Don Felder.” The signed guitar is in very fine condition. Don Felder has become synonymous with the white double-neck 6/12 string as the hybrid instrument was the cornerstone of live performances of arguably the greatest rock song of the 1970s, Hotel California. Felder’s original white Gibson GS-1275 was exhibited at New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art in a collection of the most famous instruments in rock history, and now resides in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. A signed original color print of artwork inspired by Felder’s signature guitar is also included. The Pop Art-inflected composition features a central image of the Gibson GS-1275 on a color field background with splatter overlay, the year “1978,” and the names “Felder” and “Hotel California.” The print is signed in black felt pen in across the bottom of the guitar. Measuring 28.5”x21”, the piece is in fine condition.
