Nice looking guitar, definitely appears to be a step up from the previous Epiphone signature model. And nice job to whoever set up the camera and the amp positions for that little video clip — got a nice clear shot of the settings on the TI15-112. Great little amp!
Awesome and I don’t even play. My brother does he has a 1980 SG standard.
We are both Sab fans. I would love to have one and learn to play. I seen ya 7
or 8 times including the 13 tour.
Stay healthy and strong

HI, TONY HOW ARE YOU DOING ON THESE FINE SUMMER DAYS, BEST OF HEALTH TO YOU ALWAYS MY FREIND, VINTAGE GUITAR TONY WISH I KNEW HOW TO PLAY , BEING A DRUMMER AT HEART AND MIND HERE, BUT DO YOU GIVE LESSONS AND HOW MUCH HAHAHAHA WELL JUST TO STOP BY AND TELL YOU HELLO AND LOOKING FORWARD TO NEW MUSIC FROM YOU AND THE REST OF SABBATH. CANT WAIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I received my Epiphone Tony Iommi Signature SG Custom on August 6. The day before, I severely cut the pinkie finger of my left hand on a table saw blade at work (I’m right handed). Ironic, right? Anyway, I was very lucky it wasn’t permanently damaged and got away with only stitches.
When my Iommi SG arrived, I was so sad that I’d hurt my hand, I didn’t want to open the box. But my wife encouraged me to and I was happy I did because it really cheered me up. Definitely the coolest guitar I’ve ever had. Then I plugged it in and WOW, awesome! Now I can play my Sabbath tunes with the real thing (with three fingers until my pinkie heals).
SG has always been my favorite guitar and Tony my favorite SG player.
Thanks, Tony – You’ve inspired me in many ways. Sincerely, from a huge fan always – Kim E. Montgomery.
I had John Diggins make me a replica in 1995 and I still have it and it kicks ass! I am going to buy a Epiphone version though as they look well made and obviously with TI pickups they gotta do the job right? Good luck Tony in your health and I know The End is nigh for Sabbath but I’ve been with you from day one and you have inspired me and so many others for which I am grateful and will always hold Sabbath in my heart as my favourite best band ever! – Jez Harford, Malvern England.
