David - I just realized its a good thing I only visit down there a couple times a year - if we ate those ribeyes all the time, YOU might become a Wright with a triple neck!

David, thanks for posting more unknown Wright photos. Do you know anything about the pickups on necks 1 and 2 ? I have never seen these on a Wright before, tho judging from the photo it looks as tho they have been with the guitar a long time, if not even from the born date.

Those two pickups look like Bill Lawrence pickups, but I could be wrong. Never the less, they don't look 30 years old, so I would bet that guitar has been out of it's case in the last 30 years,

I noticed that the outside neck only had eight tuning pegs while the other two had ten, was it made that way or were two removed?. A very nice steel for sure though. Also those "covers" at the peghead, looks like they'd slow down a quick broken string change on a gig...JH in Va.

"WOW" A three necked Wright Custom Steel with pedals very much like my 4 neck Console. This one is a triple 10. I would bet if you look under those headstock covers, you would find string pushers.. I am grinning from Ear to Ear. The Bridges and pickups are different. But I have not seen another Wright Steel Guitar that resembles My quad Console so closely as this. Would this Steel Guitar happen to be for sale? I would be interested in knowing.

Interesting guitar David. Did the pedals work all three necks and are there any levers? Do you know what tunings were on the necks. I love those old guitars, if only they could talk. Any ideas to who might have played them? You need to write a book about your Father and his guitars. For us newcomers our only source of information for the most part is things we read at a forum or stories we hear when we happen to meet up with a "seasoned" player.
Cheers Bro!

Yea!
I sure would love to know who owns it, and if they are into possibly selling it to me. I would like to get the Triple neck restrung and playable again if it works out, I would want to find a double neck, and a single neck as well with all of the same design metrics.
It sure would intrigue me to do so. Any Ideas on who to contact?  |

Still very interested in Who owns this Triple neck. I would be interested in purchasing it if it is for sale and at a reasonable price.
