Tony Iommi Monkey 1964 SG Special Replica Aged and Signed Item Description
It's safe to say that without this guitar, Heavy Metal as a genre would not exist. This is the iconic Tony Iommi "Monkey" 1964 SG Special, replicated to every inch and detail by the Gibson Custom Shop. This is the top of the line Aged and Signed version in the right-handed incarnation just like Iommi's original. Only 25 of these guitars exist! This one is #6. This heavily modified SG Special was used throughout every Black Sabbath album and tour of the 1970s. It's most noticeable features are the Monkey sticker, but also features customizations that include a polyurethane-coated fretboard, a zero fret, and a set of hand-made pickups wound in the UK by the apprentice of the late John Birch who was responsible for creating Iommi's original pickup set. Each guitar includes a 1960s replica Gibson hardshell case, a Certificate of authenticity, a replica leather strap just like Tony's, and even a replica silver cross chain with an incredibly cool metal coffin case. You can't deny that this will be the centerpiece of any serious Black Sabbath memorabilia collection for a long time to come.
Includes: Hardshell Case, Certificate of Authenticity, Heavy Leather Replica Leather Strap, Replica Silver Cross Necklace in Metal Coffin Case
