Moneytalks


"Moneytalks" is a hard rock track by AC/DC, written by brothers Malcolm and Angus Young and released as the second single from the 1990 album The Razors Edge. Produced by Bruce Fairbairn, the song showcases the band's signature rhythm-driven sound built on tight, punchy riffs. For electric guitar players, it offers a great study in Malcolm Young's rhythm guitar style alongside Angus Young's lead work, making it a practical lesson in classic hard rock technique and groove.

  • The song was written by both Malcolm and Angus Young, making it a strong example of their collaborative guitar-driven songwriting approach.
  • "Moneytalks" was produced by Bruce Fairbairn, who helped shape the polished yet powerful guitar tone heard on The Razors Edge.
  • A live version recorded on the 1990–1991 Razors Edge World Tour was later released on AC/DC's 1992 live album, Live.
Gibson SG Standard
Guitar

Gibson SG Standard

Angus Young's 1968 Gibson SG Standard is the foundation of AC/DC's signature tone, its lightweight mahogany body and full upper-fret access enabling his aggressive, fluid lead work. Stock Gibson humbuckers push Marshall Plexi amps into natural tube saturation, giving him the perfect balance of dynamics and crunch without relying on effects.

Marshall Plexi (1959 Super Lead)

The Marshall 1959 Super Lead cranked to full volume is where Angus Young's power comes from, with no master volume control forcing the power tubes to compress and break up naturally. This thick, harmonically rich overdrive defines AC/DC's raw, unprocessed rock tone straight from guitar to amp.

Amp

Marshall JTM45

Angus Young uses the Marshall JTM45 as his primary amp for achieving natural tube saturation at high volumes, where the amp's power tubes generate organic overdrive without any pedal assistance. This minimalist, direct approach captures AC/DC's core sound: pure, uncolored guitar and amp interaction.
