not sure how to insert a picture but search google for "Jethro Tull Rolling Stones Circus" and you'll see images of Iommi playing a white LH strat during his 2 week stint with Tull. no kidding....

It doesn't look like a Dean V to me. Looks more like a Gibby, but the input jack is at the "wrong" place -inner side of the lower wing.

Guys who follow this stuff closely say it's a Dean. YMMV.

Really? I'm not convinced. Looks too thick to be a Dean V, and the pickguard wouldn't be right. I'm thinking it's something entirely different - even a Greco or something like that. Unless somebody has a headstock shot, I'm not buying it!

Big Neill Young fan here, but in must photos of him does he look like a serial killer about to go schnapp?

Cheers!

Randy Rhoads playing a Dean V-on a break from touring with Ozzy, he sat in with Kevin Dubrow's new band (at the time) and borrowed this from the guitarist...

saw this today on FB;

Brooks do you think that is the original Strat he used on the first Sabbath album? The one where the pickups got messed up, and he picked up his backup SG, and the rest is history....?

I am equally amused by the Charlie Christian belt buckle.
