new picture from 1979
So I was browsing through the new pictures of AC/DC shows in Texas 1979 and one picture was of Angus and Malcolm on stage and behind Malcolms amp stacks was another Gretsch guitar. The question I want to bring up was, when did he get another guitar? I thought he only had one gretsch and he and Ang had one backup guitar for the two of them and it was a Fender. This is the picture link
Old thread but I'll reply anyway, at one point they had one guitar each and a spare, but by 1979, they'd made a bit of money. Angus had a few guitars, he had his original 1979 sg, a custom with 3 pickups and a white pickguard, a black sg with a white pickguard and 2 pickups (seen on the front of the blow up your video album) and I think another SGstandard of some kind and Malcolm presumably had another simlar gretsch as a backup. If you watch the show from paris in 1979, you'll see Angus change guitars.
