I'm really not sure this is a legit Gibson. I have both the Epi Iommis and never have i seen or heard of a Gibson run outside of the custom shop of Iommi signatures until the recent Iommi SG Junior Artist models. I think this is really a Mk.1 Epi with a Gibson headstock. Please correct me if i'm wrong, and i'm not trying to crap on your axe man, it's still absolutely rocking!
Hey Kenny, different generation but same story. Iommi made me go down the rabbit hole, and I never came back. You were lucky though, as I got a spanish guitar and instructions to never listen to heavy metal! 🤣 How much would one of these go on these days in your opinion? I saw one for 4k seems way out of line, even for the European market. What about the neck? Would you consider it a classic slim taper or that C shape advertised to make it chunkier? Cheers!
Great “guitar passion” story - we should all be lucky enough to dream and achieve - kudos!!
Wouldn't have been possible without all the help from talented people. Feeling incredibly lucky!
All hail the riff master Lord Iommi! Praise be to Iommi, obey the heavy riff!🔥🔥🔥🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻😈😈😈
Your love for all that was a pleasure to watch and listen to.
Maybe I'll do another for the next guitar, too! ;)
Great Video
Thanks for sharing some of your knowledge on the different versions that have been made available over the years.
Well done
I’m sure I even missed a few, there’s quite a few variations of each of these! Hard to find the entire model history anywhere online though
Awesome!
Thank you!

This guitar is real, it's 2001-2002 Gibson SG Tony Iommi.
I have this one in left - with black chrome pickups but its so old I want to get a new one so bad

My dream is to own an SG Jaydee guitar, built by the legendary John Diggins. I'm looking for Humbuckers John Birch.
best of luck on your quest! those look incredible
@@KennyRavelo Thank you Bro.
🤘🏼💀
Could Gibson not afford the rest of the cross inlays ?
