History: The Double 12 is the least well-known of the guitars introduced in 1958, the most notable of which are the Explorer and Flying V.
Between 1958 and 1962, the Double 12 looked quite different from its current form, featuring a hollow-body design with a spruce top and a maple body; in 1962, the Double 12 became the EDS-1275 with a solid mahogany body to align with the design of the new SG.
It was this revised version that would become a legendary electric guitar in the hands of Jimmy Page, who used it on the immortal “Stairway to Heaven” as well as on “The Song Remains the Same” and “The Rain Song.”
