The 90s saw Angus (and vale Malcolm Young) deviate to Wizard Amplifiers, amps built by AC/DC’s amp tech at the time, Rick St. Pierre. The Wizards are based off of Marshall circuits, but with modern built quality and reliability, Angus’ vintage Marshalls struggling to keep up with the hours of intensive playing, night after night.
the amplifier can be seen but in the white colour variration 20 seconds into the video.
"I went to see AC/DC in Sydney AU on Feb 22 and got the full stage tour from Malcolm's tech Bison and their amp tech Rick (who builds Wizard Amps). I got to play one of Angus's SG's through one of his Wizard amps. It sounded amazing. I was so nervous I couldn't remember how to play half the AC/DC songs I know. Notice how high the strap is as well. It's Angus's! Oh, and AC/DC was incredible."
