The “Godfather of Heavy Metal” reinvents the “SG”! Epiphone proudly announces the all-new Epiphone Ltd. Ed. Tony Iommi Signature SG Custom, designed by the “Godfather of Heavy Metal” himself and featuring Gibson USA Tony Iommi Signature Humbuckers, a 24-fret Ebony fingerboard, and a beautiful Ebony gloss color finish.   Tony Iommi is every guitar player’s hero. He’s not just the “lead guitarist” of Black Sabbath. He is Black Sabbath. Black Sabbath was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2006 but he’s been every shredder’s idol since Black Sabbath’s debut in 1970. For 45 years as the band’s heart and soul and the originator of dozens of all-time classic riffs, Tony Iommi has helped to make the “SG” the iconic guitar for Hard Rock and Heavy Metal. Now, Epiphone presents a one-of-a-kind SG designed exactly to Tony Iommi’s specifications.   "This guitar sounds like I want it to sound on stage," said Iommi. "I play it at home in the studio as well. It uses my signature pickups, which we worked on for quite a while over the years. It's got a great fretboard with a really nice feel. And, it's just a really classy looking guitar."   SPECIFICATIONS Body Material    Mahogany Neck Material    Mahogany Neck Shape         1960's SlimTaper™; D profile Neck Joint           Glued In; Deep-Set Neck Joint with smooth transition heel Headstock           "Epiphone" logo in Pearloid "Pineapple" inlay in Pearloid Back of Headstock           "Tony Iommi" signature in silver "Epiphone Limited Edition" logo in silver Truss Rod            Adjustable Truss Rod Cover 2-Layer; Black/White; Bell-Shaped; Blank Nut        Black; Graphite Scale Length       24.75" Fingerboard Material       Ebony with Pearloid "Cross" Inlays Frets      24; Medium/Jumbo Neck Pickup        Gibson USA Tony Iommi Signature Humbucker Bridge Pickup      Gibson USA Tony Iommi Signature Humbucker Controls               Epiphone All-metal 3-way Pickup Selector with black toggle cap Neck Pickup Volume Bridge Pickup Volume Neck Pickup Tone Bridge Pickup Tone Binding  Fingerboard - 1 ply (Pure White) Fingerboard Radius          12" Bridge   LockTone™ Tune-o-matic/Stopbar Nut Width           1.68" Hardware            Nickel Machine Heads  Premium Die-cast; 14:1 ratio; Metal Tulip Buttons Pickguard            3-Layer; Black/White/Black Knobs    Black "Top Hats" with metal inserts Output Jack         Rim-mounted; Epiphone Heavy-Duty with chrome, metal jack plate Strap Buttons     Yes Color     Ebony (gloss)   This is a refurbished guitar.
