Mac Sabbath Custom SG Style Guitar (The Cheese Shredder) Gibson

May 28,2024

Purpose Built for using in Mac Sabbath by the first Slayer McCheese- This is a one of a kind piece of Mock'n'Roll history- The Cheese Shredder Guitar! View it in action in the video below (Pardon The siren that, for whatever reason, the sound guy wouldn't turn off.) As an instrument, we must start off with the Lovely evil burger inlaid atop the headstock- Slayer would have it no other way.   One piece Honduran Mahogany body that was originally an unfinished gretsch astro-jet body from a=way back in 1962. One piece Honduran Mahogany Neck with Gabon Ebony Fretboard- 24.75 Scale length. It's SG style shape is unique to this instrument - It's slightly larger in all dimensions  The guitar weighs 9 pounds. Pickups are Gibson Tony Iommi Signature pickups- Controls are two volumes, with push pull to go from Dual to single coil on each individual pickup- and then to the toggle selector switch, then a master volume and finally the output jack- All that is tucked under a custom brass pickguard, with brass knobs. Bridge is a Pigtail Wraparound bridge with adjustable saddle for each string- Tuners are Sperzel Locking. The burros sticker is kinda of a tip o' the hat to Iommi's Monkey playing a violin sticker on his original reg SG Included with the guitar is a Gibson Hardshell Case.  Though not on in the photos there are straplock strap hangers and they will be put back on. It's quite a nice guitar really- and is hand built from great wood and top shelf parts throughout- still it's not got a known corporate F or G name attached, - so I understand that the market will be small, if there be one at all? So - I am open to your offers! Hey! - To View The photo's REAL LARGE- Open them to be larger, then "Right Click" on the photo and select "Open Image in New Tab- in the new Tab they with open much larger than on the reverb page itself Maybe you already know about that but I just figured it out recently - Neat Trick!
