Product Description
Tony Iommi is one of the most influential guitar players of all time. His iconic riffs and crushing tones, heard all over Black Sabbath's early records, arguably formed the blueprint for heavy metal. And his various projects in the decades since have continued a spellbinding career universally loved and revered. While Iommi's innovative tuning and techniques were a major part of his monstrous sound, a heavily-modified 1964 Gibson SG named "Monkey" was at the centre of it all.
This Gibson USA Tony Iommi signature SG Special pays homage to that legendary instrument which launched countless awe-inspiring riffs. With a full Mahogany construction, an Indian Rosewood fingerboard with 22 medium jumbo frets, a Graph Tech nut, Grover Rotomatic tuners and chrome-covered P-90 pickups — this kitted-out guitar effortlessly captures Iommi's tone and will encourage you to find your own voice too!
Key Features
- Mahogany Construction — This timeless tonewood (used for the body/neck) yields the thick and sustain-rich sound synonymous with Gibson guitars.
- Rounded Neck Profile — Old-school profile delivers a "time capsule" feel that'll strongly appeal to traditionalists.
- Indian Rosewood Fingerboard — Smooth and silky material, featuring a comfortable 12" radius and 22 frets.
- Medium Jumbo Frets — Offer a controllable feel for wide vibrato and pitch-perfect string bends.
- Chrome-Covered P-90 Pickups — Provide a punchy tone rich in mid-range with aggressive treble cut.
- Grover Rotomatic Tuners — High-quality design allows for precise pitching and ensures years of reliable use.
- Graph Tech Nut — Low-friction material minimises unwanted tuning slips and enhances sustain.
- Included Hardshell Case — Perfectly protects the instrument against knocks on the road!
- "Monkey" Sticker — A reproduction of Tony's "Monkey" sticker is included in the case.
