Solid Mahogany Body
The body of each Gibson USA Angus Young SG is crafted from solid mahogany, just like the original SGs of the '60s. Mahogany is a medium-dense wood with excellent resonance and superior sustain, and it offers a rich, round, warm tone, but with plenty of high-end sheen and good midrange presence This classic tone wood has yielded some of the most sought-after tones in the history of rock.
Equipped with a Gibson 57 Classic humbucking pickup in the neck position and a Gibson Angus Young model humbucker in the bridge.
