What's New With the USA Iommi Sg? | 2021 Gibson SG Special Tony Iommi Signature USA Monkey Review

[@moonchild4806]

Tony Iommi is a big inspiration for me. I'm a bass player, but I'm missing a fingertip. His story and just how good Sabbath is have really kept me going when I thought I couldn't play anymore.

[@VidMashUp]

Is he missing a fingertip?

[@moonchild4806]

@@VidMashUp two of them. His were on his fretting hand though, and mine are on my picking hand. The reason Sabbath tuned down was because of his fingers.

[@VidMashUp]

@@moonchild4806 Oh. I had no idea. How ignorant of me to ask that.

[@jackibberson5126]

You might like Frederick thorendal from meshuggah story too then it’s a little differnet as his got his finger reattached but it still massively impacted his playing might be something your interested in

[@jeleopard]

Django Reinhardt lost the use of two his fingers and played phenomenal jazz. More modernly, Christian Münzner from Necrophagist and Obscura fame can shred with only 3 fingers.

[@heavybrett-al4082]

I'm not an SG guy, but I would own this model souly due to it just having Tony attached to it. Sabbath are my all time favourite band.

[@ryanfulldark2775]

I wasn’t either till I played my ‘73 at a shop in my area. I was always a Les Paul guy. It’s so comfortable to play, sounds wicked, a true joy to play. A heavier one is better, mitigates the neck dive. Mine is 7.12lbs, sits nicely, no wrist fatigue.

My wife bought me one I gotta say I love it the screws for the bridge are in the plastic bag with the other case candy Great video Trogly and Yes Toni Iommi is my favorite guitar player The Godfather of heavy metal.

[@vadenk4433]

SG’s do balance better with the strap button on the horn. The back of the heel button will neck dive on most style guitars from my experience. Those pickups sounded great to me. The clean tones were rich and ballsy without being muddy like a lot of Gibsons. And the dirt tones were really nasty (in a good way). Pretty sweet fiddle.

[@jubei7259]

That's the difference between P90's & humbuckers.

[@TheDemolitionKings]

I did it to my 91 SG Standard. It does balance better for me.

[@tschommer]

The spacers on the top of the pickups are there because the metal covers are so much thinner than the plastic. If they weren’t there the pole screws would stick out of the top more than normal. I put metal covers on my P90 V and they came with spacers.

[@SionynJones]

That would be my guess too though they should be nickel silver and have low conductivity but probably would effect the sound. I wonder what these pickups would sound like with a plastic cover instead.

[@nigellacey559]

still love the Pelham blue

[@knedy]

I would love for Trogly to buy one of the Jaydee Old Boy SGs and compare, they run you about $3000. (Yeah I know Old Boy and Monkey are two different models of Iommis but keeping in with the whole Iommi signatures series)

[@MrShadowofthewind]

And to add, the jaydee models is what Iommi has mostly been using, with a gibson here and there throughout the years.

[@jackibberson5126]

How and where do I find them for sale 😂

[@knedy]

@@jackibberson5126 at their website

[@jeffhershberger]

I got one of the right handed ones by chance on launch day at my local shop. It was just hanging on the wall! Mine is actually really light like your left handed one, but it is one piece and has a nice swirly grain. It is hands down the best SG I have ever played and one of my all time favorite guitars.

[@hkguitar1984]

As for the little pads between the pickup cover and the bobbin, I'm guessing since the covers are not soldered in place the pads help reduce unwanted feedback.

[@VidMashUp]

Guessing isn't really helpful. Thanks.

[@hkguitar1984]

@@VidMashUp I've had it happen in the past with unsoldered pickup covers causing unwanted feedback (my personal experience). Why Gibson would place those pads there can only be a guess.

[@clarkbabin9799]

The little pads are insulating the cover from the pickups so theres no strange vibration. It's common practice to put insulating tape on electrical parts that resonate.

[@mihneazoican2479]

@@VidMashUp he’s right though. Covers are usually soldered in place and the whole assembly is wax-potted. The pads are a quicker (and cheaper) alternative

[@tonibarski4283]

This is usually done on fender p bass pickups so the string doesn't clack on the pole piece , all it is , is reducing the amount the pole pieces sticks out the top of the cover , maybe why they did it here ???

[@reggiesalas4285]

I've got Iommi's 2010 (ish) Epiphone SG, and man....I've held a lot of SGs, but they're nowhere close to as heavy as mine. That SG is still my favorite sounding guitar that I own, it's an absolute beast.

[@donaldlaury7193]

The ones on Sweetwater do have the bridge screws for adjusting the intonation installed in all their pics. Funny just how differently they're all adjusted in the pictures though.

[@GiorgioVerzotto]

The little felt pieces under the pickup covers are likely there to dampen vibrations and thus feedback. Makes sense since they are not held in place by solder.

[@quakana]

Thanks for the Video! With one on the way I was trying to figure out the data on my serial number and came across this on gibsons webpage....FYI Gibson USA 2014 to present - These serial numbers cannot be dated to a specific day of the year. The new model year typically launches in the fall as the current model year winds down. It is not uncommon for a new model year model to be produced during the previous model year (example - a 2015 model may have been built in late 2014). The pattern is as follows: YYRRRRRRR YY is the model year RRRRRRR is the number in product for the model year (starts at 0000001)

[@clarkbabin9799]

The traditional pro III and the SG that I bought from you has drastically different necks. The SG has quite a chunky neck compared to the LP. I'll have to remind my brother who started playing before I did and is a lefty that plays right handed that it is possible to play with a missing finger tip. Of course that happened a few years back and he kind of gave up playing awhile getting used to a missing index finger tip. I think on this guitar I may just leave the sticker in the case or put on the case itself.

[@alexfotheringham7279]

I love seeing you do videos of Sgs!!! I own a 2016 tribute and a 2019 modern SG and they are soooo much fun!!!

I like the fat neck. Actually, I like their thin necks too. I never really notice the neck thickness untill I switch to a different one. After a minute, it's the new normal for me.

[@hkguitar1984]

Good to know..............

[@jonathanhudak2059]

Michael Hannigan... Well stated! My 94' SG standard has a fatter neck but my 2020 SG Special P-90 (faded Pelham Blue).has more of a slim taper neck. Both totally different from each other in their necks but nothing like a half hour after playing and Now you're used to it!

[@jubei7259]

@@jonathanhudak2059 yeah, my 92' Standard has a fatter neck too than most SG's I've ever played so maybe Gibson made them that way back then or something? I don't really mind neck thickness tbh. For me, it's more nut width that matters.

[@VidMashUp]

@@jubei7259 I find that their necks frequently vary slightly from what their spec is. I mean, I don't know the exact specs, but since they're hand-made, I assume there's quite a bit of tolerance in measurements as long as they have the correct "feel". When my playing gets a litte stale or I'm stuck in a song, I'll swap out a 60s LP for an SG, a 50s LP, a special - whatever. I'm usually worse for the first hour or so, but then when I switch back in an hour or two, or day, or two I feel like I've "unlocked" something I was stuck on. It's all psychological and I can't even begin to explain why or if this happens to everyone. What I am pretty sure about us that anyone could play on a given neck for a week or so and no longer feel that it's different. Maybe some outliers are different like an Ibanez wizard 99 neck or whatever - but some necks are just really, really different. Among Gibson's and Fenders though (not sure about vintage fender and the tiny radius - don't think I ever played one), switching around doesn't see to matter to me much except as I said, maybe to help me with some tiny breakthroughs.

The only SG I ever tried that didn’t experience neck dive from was an epiphone ebony Tony Iommi G400 and I think it was due to the position of the strap button on the horn . Which I realize now I should have purchased , as quality lefty Tony Iommi SG ‘s are rare to find used . I’ve never understood why Gibson or Epiphone doesn’t put the strap button there in the first place , if all of the Tony iommi models successfully have it there . And it seems to kill the biggest complaint of the model .

[@Andrew_182]

It's not about the placement of the strap buttons as you can see at 24:08, it's about the weight of the body. Heavier bodied examples likely wont neck dive, lighter ones probably will.

Never had a problem with neck dive with my sg

[@bobtheblindbedroomguitaris8742]

Thanks charlie. Go with your bad ass black service Black Sabbath coolness man. I could tell you a digging it and it sounded great. And it doesn't sound anything like my special my SG 2005 Gibson special. Mine's and wine red full gloss. Am I don't have anything like the old time ones. It's got a regular stop bar that you find on the standard it's got the same tuna matic bridge as is on the 2005 standard the pickups I don't know which ones they put on the 2005 standard but mine are 490t1900 uncovered. Which I plant the cover at some point with some Chrome and nickel plated pickup coverage. It only has that mother of pearl inlays on the fingerboard. It does have a different neck shape. Or thickness. It's like in between the thick ones and the skinny ones. It's a very very comfortable neck profile to say the least. Well you were just playing with so cool charlie. And sounded so great once you hit the distortion. I've come to understand that throughout the history of the SG special they are so many iterations it's pretty cool. I love mine. When I first got it I thought I'd be wanting to change out the pickups but the truth is I don't want anymore they do they do what you want them to and they sound real really good so why flop them out. Yeah that's what I would call the flopping out so I don't think there's going to be much better if it's my guitar perfectly. Again I'm just going to be adding pick up wings and nickel plated or Chrome covers on it. Anyway just repeating myself that means it's time to stop the comment thanks again man. You were rocking. Sometimes it's hard on my little Android phone I have a big Android phone LOL to really know what the guitar sounds like. But this guitar sounded great even through my android. The only thing I have a problem with is I can't get over 60 cycle hum. At first I thought that this guitar really didn't have much but then when you were playing lightly or softly with the overdrive it was there. You know and that would drive me crazy. Anyway sincerely yours, Bob the blind bedroom guitarist

[@jjdillon2007]

The clean tones: Wow, these P90s sound much fuller than an average P90 (closer to a humbucker). I wonder if the metal cover influences the sound/tone?

[@benallmark9671]

I've always wondered the same thing

[@wizardito7741]

Yes it does, a pickup reacts to ferromagnetic stuffs. So when you have metal covers, in sorta way its "resonating more" so you make the pickups into "microphonics" (for example if you scream into the pickup and you hear the voice on the amp) if you want a powerfull (but noice with high gain) sound, you can make copper covers lefting a tiny space between the pickups and the upper face cover (so when the copper plates moves, it induce current to your pickups)

I prefer the Tony Iommi signature sg Epiphone 2015 model that I purchased in about May 2021 after having to check about 20 different online stores just to find one for sale. I finally found a used one for sale for $850 (the same as they cost new) but it was worth it after the incredibly difficult time in finding one for sale. The high-output custom Gibson U.S.A Humbucker pickups on the 2015 model sound just amazing. And since I prefer the "heavier" sounding era of Black Sabbath when Ian Gillan, Ronnie James Dio, & Tony Martin were vocalists in the band, the Epiphone with the humbuckers was the definite choice for me.

The finish flaw under the plastics should of been flagged by QC and fixed unacceptable in a 2k instrument. The guitar is pretty meh overall except for those custom pickups, which epiphone and Gibson seem to be doing a lot lately. That is where the value is with this guitar is the custom voiced pickups and boy do they sound so good. You get the beef of humbucker and the clairty with of a single coil. I'm both a fan of Gibson and epiphone current p-90 offerings. Like that epiphone LP special you reviewed. I've certainly became a p-90 convert. Don't get me wrong I still like humbuckers but now get why so many are drawn to p-90s over humbuckers they are very versatile pickups.
