RowdyMoon Posted September 18, 2012 Posted September 18, 2012 If you could only choose one.....The Robby Kreiger 50th ann......a 2008 Angus Young Sig.....or a 71/72 Sg......all with humbuckers and the Meastro vibrola..
EVOL! Posted September 18, 2012 Posted September 18, 2012 Not trying to buck the trend, but Robby Krieger all the way. Gibson 57s are my favorite humbucker. Wonder if it has the sweet baseball bat neck?

Wonder if it has the sweet baseball bat neck? I am not sure on that one.....the reason I am asking cause I am looking at all 3......the Kreiger I can get for 1400, the Angus is selling for 2400 and the 72 is selling for 2200.......the easiest to get is the Angus it's actually only a few miles away.......but aside from the witch hat knobs and I think 1 pickup is there really 1000 dollars worth of difference in the Angus over the 50th anniversary Kreiger? The seventies one looks cool but it's probably a gamble as far as condition without actually seeing it in person.
RowdyMoon Posted September 19, 2012 Author Posted September 19, 2012 early 70s for me I thought for sure you'd pic the Angus....shows what I know.... hehe
sellen Posted September 19, 2012 Posted September 19, 2012 I thought for sure you'd pic the Angus....shows what I know.... hehe Well i do already have one Angus sig. If not ........ 1400 for the Krieger sound like a good deal, but it sure looks cool with the angus devil on the headstock
Twiz Posted September 20, 2012 Posted September 20, 2012 70's for me please. I'd get one without a Meastro vibrola though. No tremolo's for me thanks.

Superdick2112 Posted October 25, 2012 Posted October 25, 2012 Another vote for the 50th Krieger. It's the most affordable of the three, it features the ultra-cool neck pup phase reversal switch, and the super slim profile '60s neck plays like a dream. I liked mine so much I bought a second one, and swapped the bridge pup out for an Angus pup. I ended up selling the modded one, as the stock model with the '57 classics just played & sounded perfect for me.
jojo68 Posted November 3, 2012 Posted November 3, 2012 I didn't like the VERY thin neck on the early 70's I had.
Vega1 Posted November 4, 2012 Posted November 4, 2012 If your still taking opinions... I'd take the Angus. Love the lightning bolt inlays.
