Gibson Angus Young SG (Ebony) Electric Guitar

Angus Young's incendiary tone has inspired wave after wave of rock guitar heroes, and turned on countless players to the power of his seminal guitar of choice, the SG.

Tonga, Tonga (prHWY.com) January 5, 2013 - Angus Young's incendiary tone has inspired wave after wave of rock guitar heroes, and turned on countless players to the power of his seminal guitar of choice, the SG. Now the Gibson USA Angus Young SG, brings all the tone and playability of this classic double-cutaway made to Young's own specs within reach of the hard-working rock guitarist, giving you all the punch, crunch, and sizzle that Angus achieves with his own treasured instrument.

Way back in 1961 the Gibson SG replaced the underappreciated Les Paul Standard, and while the Les Paul would surface later in the decade as a rock and blues classic, the new SG (originally named Les Paul/SG) was an instant hit in its own right. Its simple yet inspired ingredients of thin, all-mahogany body and neck and two Gibson humbucking pickups gave it a snappy attack with a muscular punch, and its slim, fast neck yielded unprecedented playability. The Gibson USA Angus Young SG not only captures the look, feel and sound of a classic SG, it also embodies some of the rare specs and qualities of Angus's own '68 model, known to be a stand-out example among a classic breed. It's light, all-mahogany body yields superb resonance, while its extra slim, narrow neck provides unparalleled playability--and, topped with an upgraded ebony fingerboard with lightning-bolt inlays, it also provides a look that will help any rocker stand out from the crowd. Loaded with Gibson's popular 57 Classic humbucking pickup in the neck and an Angus Young humbucker in the bridge for added punch and sizzle, it also packs all the firepower a gigging guitarist needs to cut it on the big stage. Each guitar comes with a snug-fitting Gibson USA hardshell case.

Angus Young(http://www.angusyoungsg.com) is a guitarist and songwriter who has been the lead guitarist of Australian hard rock band AC/DC since they formed in 1973. Angus Young is known for his signature vibrato, harsh bridge humbucker screaming Gibson SG's, wild stage energy, and most importantly, his school boy clothing. He was ranked 96th on Rolling Stone's list of the 100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time. Angus has been known for his "no nonsense" guitar setups. This is usually just his guitar, a cord and his marshall stack! The Gibson SG is sort of the signature loud cutting humbucker type rock machine and you can hear this in all of AC/DC's songs.
