\"NordicThe Rotator from Nordic Guitars is unlike anything you\u2019ve seen. At first glance, the double-necked instrument seems upside down, but that\u2019s where its name comes in. The Rotator\u2019s fretted and fretless necks point in opposite directions and can be rotated to quickly change styles. <\/p>\n

\u201c[The necks are] fixed together in each end with 1 piece of milled out brass, which contains both a nut, 3D-bridge, tuning system, string fixing, potentiometers, electronics, compartment for a 9 v battery, plus nuts for adjustment of 2 truss rods in each neck,\u201d Nordic explains. \u201cThe necks are also fastened to each other exactly in the middle, with a pivot system connected to the back part. Incorporated in the pivot system there is a stereo transmission of the signals from the pickups and the electronics at each end of the front part \u2013 to 2 mono jack sockets in the back part, in which you plug cables to an amp.\u201d<\/p>\n

This is great for switching between fretted and fretless, but you can also get creative by playing them simultaneously. Check out Nordic\u2019s Bj\u00f8rn R\u00f8nnow explaining and demoing the Rotator:\n<\/p>\n
