I haven't a clue. But It looks like it would be 6 feet wide if it is real.

Heres some real ones ;D laughingsquid.com/present-arms-12-neck-guitar-sculptures-by-yoshihiko-satoh/According to Wikipedia..... "As of 2012, the most necks placed on a single guitar is a ludicrous and puzzling twelve, apparently first achieved in 2002 by Japanese artist Yoshihiko Satoh. Whether this hydra is actually a practical musical instrument or an avant garde sculpture remains conjectural." |

The picture is of a digital rendering of what that guitar would be like, the lighting is too fake and directional for real world lighting which gives it away that it is a 3D rendering of a 12 neck guitar. Not to say it can't or hasn't been done, just that specific picture is not legitimate, it is digitally created through a 3D rendering program such as Maya or ZBrush or whoever took that picture is the god of photographic lighting lol.

Another thing that gives it away is the fact that the guitars are all the same, unlike the one in roboblaze's picture.

Another thing that gives it away is the fact that the guitars are all the same, unlike the one in roboblaze's picture. That is actually not true, sorry to say. It's not impossible to engineer a guitar such as that, although it would prove very difficult and time consuming. The reason why I say this is a digital rendering is not because the picture is "altered" or "photoshopped" because I work with photoshop and that's not a photoshopped image. The image is a picture taken in a digital rendering program(probably Maya) and everything is super clean, smooth looking and the lighting of the room and object are too perfect and angular. You would have to spend a LOT of time and money to make a room with that perfect lighting fixture to replicate this lighting, so it is more than likely it is just a digital rendering of a guitar rather than a ridiculously clean image of a real product.  |

Yeah, I got it. But if you really had a guitar like that it would be just to show how big it is. Why would you want 12 guitars that have the same characteristics and are holding together on a live show? lol
