This is from memory but what I do know is that Angus' favorite SG is the dark red one with the lightning bolt inlays on it. I'm not sure of the year because the neck was replaced by an English luthier if I remember correctly. The neck is insanely small though. The nut measures 1.5" and the thickness is something like .73" at the first fret and .8" at 12. Ebony fingerboard with the lightning inlays. According to Angus' tech it has PAFs in it, no idea about their output. It's pretty easy to spot because of the inlays and the cream selector ring on it. The custom shop made him a copy in 2001 which you can see on the new Guitar World cover.
