Tony Iommi receives replica '65 Gibson SG

Tue, 24 Jan 2012

As the newly reunited Black Sabbath prepare for a new album and tour, Jaydee Custom Guitars are working on second replica of Tony Iommi's retired red 1965 Gibson SG, reports UltimateClassicRock

Iommi's trusty Gibson was recognisable due to its carton monkey sticker that featured on the body and the custom guitar manufacturer will present Iommi with a second replica in time for their comeback shows.

John Diggins, who is head at Jaydee Custom Guitars and who has known Iommi for over 40 years, said of the guitarists recent diagnosis:

"He’s not the kind of person who will just sit back. The guitars will keep him busy."
