Angus Young
AC/DC's lead guitarist and the embodiment of high-energy rock and roll. Known for his schoolboy uniform, Chuck Berry-inspired duckwalk, and a raw Gibson SG tone through cranked Marshalls that defined hard rock rhythm guitar. His riffs on Back in Black made it one of the best-selling albums of all time.
