Angus Young
Along with Tony Iommi, Angus Young is the most famous SG player. His love for the double-cut Gibsons spans over four decades and he is very rarely seen playing anything else. Gibson USA and Gibson Custom make signature models for one of their best ambassadors. This particular model is the standard Angus Young Signature SG made by Gibson USA. It comes with a solid, double-cut mahogany body. Traditionally, it is flat on top with beveled edges. This one is available only in red with high gloss finish. Vintage bridge section combines the tune-o-matic bridge with vibrola bar and trapezoid tailpiece. Classic '57 humbuckers come with separate volume and tone knobs and a three-way toggle pickup switch. Set in mahogany neck is topped with a 22-fret rosewood fingerboard.

I bought this guitar in 2007, played it for a couple of years then traded it to a buddy for a rifle!!! I was completely lost without it! I finally convinced my buddy to sell it back to me and I will NEVER let this guitar out of my sight again! It is an awesome guitar....
