tserose Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 The SG has been around for forty years or more. During this period it has undergone a few design changes that have not always been in its favour. Yet, it has still become a favourite with many guitarists who have kept the interest in this instrument alive. One such musician is Tony Iommi of "Black Sabbath" I met Tony Iommi sg guitar in the early 70's while working with John Birch. Tony had a left handed SG special which had the most amazing body contours that were so pronounced, I must admit, I did copy them, and have done ever since. I believe this is what an SG should look like. Special features Double octave ebony fret board. Joins body at 22nd fret Mother of pearl crucifix inlays Three or five piece laminated neck for strength and rigidity Solid Brazilian mahogany body Spertzel /Schaller machine heads Fully bound neck and headstock Slim fast low action neck Two Custom made "Jaydee" High performance pick-ups Combination Bridge and tailstock with micro tune or Standard Tune o, matic and stop bar tail piece Standard control arrangement: Two-volume, two tone controls and pick-up selector Power boost optional Finished in Cherry Red or Black Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
