Stereo Guitar: Two-Output Mandoguitar

20 years after first thinking of it, I modified my Hammertone mandoguitar for separate outputs for bass and treble.
One viewer asked if it would work in mono. When only one jack is used, the outputs sum and the stereo functionality is disabled.

So... the Beatles reference is probably not accurate. It was conventional wisdom for years that George used a mandoguitar on "Words of Love" but Vox didn't introduce it until a year later. The real Beatle heads claim it was "just George's Gretsch Tennessean double-tracked."
What is certain is that Barney Kessel had a Gibson A-style mandolin modified with a short 12-string guitar neck that he used for the opening of the Beach Boys "Wouldn't It Be Nice" session in the Spring of 1966, which might be the first recording of the mandoguitar.
And while I'm correcting things, the "Bias Tremolo" on the MM4 has nothing to do with brown Fender amp, but is based upon "the tremolo circuitry of the 1960 Vox AC15 amplifier... Our Bias Model emulates a classic Vox tremolo circuit design. Bias tremolo produces a deep, 3-dimensional, kinda phasey tremolo...," according to the MM4 manual I just found on-line.

Cool video! Thanks for posting. I like the separation of the pups with the mando-guitar. Would be a great set up for an electric 12 string too.
