More Prog
March 12, 2025
Since I started on a Prog bender, I think I would be remiss if I left out Australian Progsters Angus and Malcom Young. True Monsters of Prog. Enjoy.
This started out as a broken Epiphone, one of the very nice Pro models. Turns out the Epi copy was a bit too authentic - it even reproduced the standard Gibson pop-off headstock. I removed the neck, re-finished the stump, routed out a neck pocket, and installed a Fender Mexico Precision neck. The pickups are stock, the active electronics are a replacement as the originals blew up. I also made the pickguard. The high frets are basically inaccessible, but the trade-off is much better balance.
