Dick Knight custom double neck

For the Trick Of The Tail album and tour in 1976, Mike Rutherford played a double neck guitar custom-built by well-known luthier Dick Night, who had made his two previous double necks. He slowly transitioned to this one from the Rickenbacker/Microfrets double neck. But things didn't quite work out with Mike and the custom-built double neck as stated at the time: "I find custom guitars rather dangerous, because you don't know quite what you're getting."

So he donated it for a raffle competition provided by a German magazine called Musik Joker in 1977, and moved on to using the Shergold.
