Mr. Brian May of Queen got unmistakeable sounds from his guitar. You may recall each Queen album had the statement, "No synthesizers used to record this album" on the back.

He actually built his guitar at the age of 16 abd is still using it

He also uses an old sixpenny coin as a pick...which may contribute to the tone.

Anybody remember Bill Nelson ? (Be Bop Deluxe) ...absolutely awesome tone...never bettered in my humble opinion.

I heard he built that guitar out of old fireplace wood. Nice job Brian, your little hobby paid off.

Him and his dad also hand coiled the pickups using miles of telephone wire...the lengths some people will go to... :coolio:

Does anyone remember Bill Nelson?....check out 'Crying to the Sky' from Be Bop Deluxe's third album for the most awesome , apocalyptic tone you will ever hear. :guitar:
