Lemmo gets the most out every guitar he demos, and we get a lesson in composition, a short history of classic rock icons and the most brilliant tone imaginable. The SG, one of Gibson's most brilliant inventions for sure. The SG Special with P-90s is heavenly.
Great to listen to Lemmo, I'm twice his age but he plays all the tunes I grew-up with and it's great to see they are still loved, some things you just can't improve upon....
They do sound amazing, but a lot of that has to do with Lemmo. I love P90s too but if you play live or with a lot of gain, it can be hard to control the pickup hum/noise.
I think p90s are better in the studio because they are just easier to mix than humbuckers, but humbuckers can be better love just because of the hum of the p90s can be a bit tricky
Looks like the "lightning bolt" stagger on that wraparound bridge was the old style, with the third position looking for a wound G string rather than a plain one. I had a Gibson Melody Maker in the early 70's with the same bridge, but, not knowing any better, I always used plain G strings, and they always intonated way sharp on me. Live 'n learn, I guess!
I love your style and that song I haven’t heard in ages I was around when it first came out. My friend used it in their practice when they were a opening band for Styx a sock hop band when I lived in Chicago before they were big 7:44
Michael, pretty please with cherry red and pelham blue flowers on top, ...please mention your signal chain when using overdrive... Thanx in advance and thanx for your always very cool plunking
Great playing michael angus iommi sabbath and acdc great classic rock stuff man you are a great player michael enjoy your awesome life down there michael you deserve it your a great young man im born about a year and a half before you in may of 1988 im 35 now and love guitar i think your a way better player and person than me man but i have autism live with my parents we dont always get along all the time but we love and care for each other and we all love the guitar and your playing is awesome i like to improv eruption by van halen up here at deka lake bc. canada. Also if you get a chance mike check out the canadian rock band the trews john angus plays gibson guitars reissues and hes an amazing guitarist from antagonish nova scotia scottish canadian!!!
The condition on that SG is ridiculous. Probably the price too. Norm's secret stash? Hash from 1964? Still potent. Norm, there are a million guutar players jealous of your guitars , and Michael's playing. Heavy duty!
Beautiful finish on that guitar. But not really doing the instrument any favors playing it with all that distortion. Awful. Any guitar can sound like that. I have one very similar - a 1965. Mine has a finish that is all cracked in a checked pattern - probably from riding in cold vans. it has the same small pickguard. Its a great guitar, but I don't play it much anymore. I've had mine since 1970. Along the way it got new tuners, bridge, nut, rewired the pots to improve grounding. Also replaced the tone caps. Pickups were originally wired out of phase, which I reversed because I like the in phase sound better. Great guitars.

Thank you for playing music that this guitar is famous for. Such a talented musician 👍
Yes, incredible!

Awesome set Lemmo! Beautiful guitar and sounds good too! Awesome video Jen!
Michael you are plain pro bro’..so glad to hear you play. That SG was just WHEW! Thanks Jen ❤️
Love those pre volute neck/head stock. Absolute rocker guitar. Thanks Lemmo!
Great job Lemmo on looping..such a iconic guitar..it has that 60's vibe all over it.A dream guitar for all looking to replicate Clapton's Cream vibe.
Cream vibe isn’t derived from P90s though!
Putting the SG through its paces. Angus and Tomi would be happy 👍✌️☮️
And what about Pete?...
I live for these videos! You guys are awesome, thanks for making my days.
Great Sabbath tribute. I always enjoy Mike's playing.
P 90 kinda grow on you.
This is so good ... I'm thunderstruck!
Dawg, that was legit. I'm seriously considering swapping out my buckers for the P90s on my SG. They sound so good.
They do sound amazing, but a lot of that has to do with Lemmo. I love P90s too but if you play live or with a lot of gain, it can be hard to control the pickup hum/noise.

The ROAR of Lemmo and the SG.
You should start making guitar of the day shirts with the different days on each shirt
P90’s. 🎸👍
Superb 🎸🎸🎸
oh yeah baby!
Outstanding! Masterful.
Nice. I like it when Lemmo rocks out.
Sick just sick, clearly a sick guitar, sick rock tunes played with a high level of sick. TY
SGs rule
Hell yeah!

Mega Gitarre, Weltklasse gespielt Michael. Ich hoffe du kommst mal nach Deutschland in unsere Gegend. 🤘
Pete Townshend used to buy these by the dozen. Get the Live at Leeds vibe!
Uncle Larry special right there
Townsend guitar of the late 60s
Hell yayusss!!! Nodding to Iommi🤘🤘🤘
Lemmo's a madman✌️
Yep, that was ASSUME! On the neck setting I am sure I heard Leslie West playing Mississippi Queen
Great job man!!!
Michael, pretty please with cherry red and pelham blue flowers on top,

Great looking guitar but what a dumb place to put the cable plug-in. It should be on the back, bottom.
Yes, yes.....definitely!
No way on Gibson and a huge yes on the legendary Epiphone..
Hey gang! 😀 👍
Tony Iommi would like that Lemmo I’m sure
♥

#NRGFreeBook

Unless you are missing something you cannot see a red SG and not think Tony Iommie instantly
paranoid iron man thunderstruck all with a side of lemmo noodles.. oh my shirt size is large
👍🏻✌❤😎
Looper boy
I feel like Derek Trucks could messss this guitar up in the best way possible.

Whats she going for?
I thought these were supposed to be "rare" guitars?
Too fast Lem U ain’t an Iommi
IOMMI is Sabbath
Sabbath shouldn't be played on the neck pickup. Just saying
