The only multi-neck acoustic I've seen is the one John Paul Jones uses for The Battle of Evermore...

Linda Manzar made a pretty bizarre triple neck where the necks were coming off the body in different directions and IIRC, had sympathetic strings also, her version of a harp guitar.
Abe Wechter also made a double neck acoustic bass (fretted and fretless) for Jonas Hellborg.

Oh, God. Siamese Triplets.
I take it that the two to "necks" should be played open strings only? How would you play it? I would assume not like an ordinary guitar, obviously.

It depends on how many hands you have!

Didn't Richie Sambora from Bon Jovi play an acoustic doubleneck whenever they did "Wanted Dead or Alive" acoustically?

I don't have a picture, but at the Fountain Valley (CA) Guitar Center there was on display in the "expensive-as-heck" section a Fender Strat/Tele doubleneck. Price: a bit more than $10,000! Yikes! And I thought $5000 for a RIC 362/12 was high!
This has given me incentive to get back on my "622/12 GC" doubleneck project guitar! I know that once the bodies are cut, there will be no turning back!
