AC/DC: Gretsch Releases Malcom Young’s Signature Guitar

One more deserved tribute to one of the most iconic guitarists ever: AC/DC’s Malcom Young who’s worldwide known for his unpayable services to rock/metal sonance and unique guitar playing.

The model is extremely simple as it is the famous honorable musician who inspired it. As the page says “Nicknamed “The Beast,” Malcolm certainly made the instrument his own, not least by removing two of the three pickups, stripping away the finish, and pounding out some of the hardest and most memorable rhythms the world has heard.”

– “DIY” pickup routes with simulated screw holes

– Chrome switch plugs
