SG Standard (Serial no. 198491)
ca. 1964
Gibson
Angus Young, a cofounder of the Australian hard rock band AC/DC, has used Gibson SGs exclusively throughout his career with the band. He was initially attracted to the model because of its light weight and easy playability during his high-energy performances. Young has played this guitar since the 1980s in concerts including Live at Donington and Live at River Plate, and at the Grammys in 2015. Its original vibrato tailpiece has been removed. Young never relied on effect to achieve his signature tones -- just his guitar, amplifier, and a preamp. |
