Michael and Glen's main guitars were SG's

Bruce points out that the SG meshed perfectly with his style of play. “My fingers aren’t very long, and other guitars just didn’t feel right,” he said. “I play really hard, and press down hard on the frets. It’s not exactly the feathery touch that someone like, say, Eric Clapton has. The SG allows me to play that way. I remember my first SG, which had a single-coil black pickup. Later, I got an SG Special, with two [P-90] humbuckers, and put my original single-coil pickups in that guitar. That gave it a really nice fat sound. Glen and I liked to do these long, droning things, and the SGs were perfect for that.”
