Guitar Habits of Angus Young

[MusicisWin]

The *HABITS of...* series is back, baby. Which guitar player would you like to see featured next?

As a longtime AC DC fan, I always loved Angus and Brian as a duo. However, after I started playing guitar back in the early 2000's I realized after a while that Malcolm's riff writing and rhythm work was the engine that made the car go. Those riffs are so simple but totally cool. RIP Malcolm Young.

The Gibson SG and Angus Young is just a perfect fit! Legend!

[tersan]

Angus WAS perfectly on time??

He ain't dead yet!

[manuelmesamusic]

I remember the first time I listened to AC/DC. I had never heard anything like that and I fell in love with rock and roll 🎸

[chrisbarnes]

The solo to Shake a Leg gives me goosebumps to this day. They're the only band I've seen live, got to see them on the Black Ice Tour in 2008 in Melbourne. My dad and I drive 4 hours to the city after work for a night show, the whole band absolutely KILLED it. Angus was mental for the entire show running flat out, spinning everywhere for a 30 min or more solo. We got home at 3am and and I had to go to work at 6am. Couldn't hear properly for about 2 weeks, they were so loud but by God it is one of my favourite music memories.

To me it's amazing how AC/DC made such simple rhythms, simple riffs and one freaking scale sound so fantastic and pleasing to the ear for so many years!!

Watching him live was so much fun. He's the energizer bunny of rock.

[austingarcia]

As an australian, i can confirm that Angus Young is one of the greatest influences of aussie rock today

[maciek]

AC/DC is one of the best thing happened to rock music.

[junkhead_]

Why are you talking about Angus in past? He's not dead nor retired.

[scottwaszak]

The best vibrato in hard rock, especially at the top of bends.

[manuelignaciomiranda]

Who remember when Tyler was in London and he said: I am not a SG man"?

[RCSmiths]

I am so happy to see this returned! I would very much love to see Habits of Gary Moore if you could!

[tappiocah]

I know probably this comment will just get lost, but it will be really cool if you could make Tony Iommi

“Angus Young’s guitar playing style is adrenaline.”
Man! That’s an accurate definition.

[angusyoung]

Angus is the greatest guitarist of all time he inspired me to play guitar and he got me addicted to the SG

[shouldershot]

Angus is the reason 95% of SG owners are where they are. Myself included. Seen the boys live twice and can’t wait to shell out for them again. Boy do I miss Malcolm though...

[patricksommer]

I think you're missing one part.
Especially in blues-ier songs he would go to to the major pentatonic, like in The Jack
