Angus Young's Gear
In the comment section from the linked youtube video you can read this from the comments: "This Video is showing the Stiff Upper Lip Tour. They were not using the Schaffer as a wireless unit in the 00's. They used it in the 70's and early 80's. Angus used a Sennheiser EM 2050 Wireless on the SUL Tour. It wouldn't even be legal to use the original Schaffer Vega in Germany because of amateur radio laws. On the SUL Tour it was just his SG and Marshall Super Leads Reissues."
