They've always owned those shapes since they trademarked them as many as 60ish years ago. They have sued other companies in the past.
Most other companies (except the Chibsons) are smart enough to make their versions different enough to not get sued.
They don't bother suing all the Asian companies, 'cause they know it'd be futile.
I always thought a doubleneck flying V that looks like would be cool. I've not seen any with that shape
I have one of Gibson's reverse V models. It's actually more ergonomic than it looks, but it doesn't get played at all really.
That looks like it'd be a bitch to hold and play - and heavy, but all double neck guitars are heavy.
I wonder if it'd be more realistic with a reverse V shape? Or maybe one regular V and a reverse V?
You don't think that's realistic? I know it's a shitty drawing but I thought it would be possible to make, just have to use some wood that would be strong enough to hold them together at the crossings.
Those backwards V's just look weird. I would play one of those though way before those behemoths that djent video guys were playing
