Easily one of the best SG models of Gibson's modern era, this Angus signature is a gorgeous guitar. The vintage dark cherry finish is rich and sumptuous, revealing hues that range from chocolate to deep cherry, depending on the light. The lyre vibrola completes the classic 60s presentation, albeit with the cheeky addition of dual lightning bolt motif exclusive to the Young model. The bridge pickup is thick and woody. In the middle position the guitar has a lovely bell-tone roundness, and the bridge is classic patent style tone, with lots of clarity and minimal spike. The most outstanding aspect of this one is its neck, though -- it is divine and about as close to "plays itself" as you are ever likely to encounter. For a player who wishes the finest playing experience, this is a guitar to seriously consider. Comes with original hardshell case
