Introduced in 1963, the Gibson EDS-1275 is a double-neck Gibson electric guitar that is being manufactured today. It was dubbed "the coolest guitar in rock" and made famous by entertainers like Jimmy Page and John McLaughlin. The solid-body EDS-1275, which resembled the SG type, was designed in 1963 and was a doubleneck that remained in production until 1968. The guitar came in sunburst, cherry, jet black, and white.

Gibson resumed production of the guitar in 1974 and continued to do so in a variety of other colors until 1998. Since then, Gibson USA has produced alpine white and heritage cherry variants in Nashville, Tennessee, until 2003; in the Nashville Custom Shop from 2004 to 2005; and starting in 2006, in the Memphis, Tennessee, Custom Shop.

As of 2009, the guitar is only available as a special order model through the Gibson Custom Shop. It has a three-way neck-selector switch, a three-way pickup-selector switch, and two volume and tone control knobs. Twenty frets per neck (bound with single-ply white binding), black pickguards and pickup rings, pearloid split parallelogram inlays, vintage tulip tuners, and 490 Alnico (R) and 498 Alnico (T) humbucking pickups are all features. Additionally, a Don Felder "Hotel California" signature model is produced by The Custom Shop. Compared to the original EDS-1275 and the "Hotel California" EDS-1275, the new Gibson EDS-1275 and Epiphone G-1275 versions have longer 12-string headstocks.
