50th Anniversary of the Fender Stratocaster guitar.

[MrViktorNCZ]

Got one too, what a state of art!

[finbarmaginn]

love the 50th anniversary, got one, soo nice to play. nice seeing brian may play one.

[ajrst82]

I love how all the keyboard wkend warriors come on here slagging off Brian May, saying its not his guitar etc etc, then if you bothered to watch it to the end you see him playing one live!!!

BM is one of the greatest guitar players of all time, in the most successful Rock Band of all time,Queen have even sold more albums than the Beatles, I think he knows what he's talking about. U tube - everyones a expert!!!!

[ufoolme]

wow.... how much did fender pay him...lol

[Chilled1969uk]

every day is a school day

[vitamincity]

@laiholapso That's right, he's not a fender strat man. He MAKES his own guitars, he doesn't buy them, he literally made his own guitar with his dad and has used it in nearly ever live show and studio recording he's made. And it has better range of sound than any strat ever will.

[laiholapso]

@vitamincity i couldn't give a fuck what he does, but i know what he doesn't do. and thats play a fender

[dearfriends1939]

looks weird..

strat special.. hha

[thanksgiving1000]

fuck...brian may doesn't even know what a fuckin' strato is...miss you steve ray vaughan...

[5teady]

@thanksgiving1000 TWAT AGAIN!

[whynottalklikeapirat]

i love fender and i love brian. I also like roast pork and vanilla icecream. Doesnt mean id ever mix'em up for other than some weird gimmicky special experimental reason

[paulopezz]

this dont make sense?why get brian may to promote a guitar he never plays?

[turesrock]

Sorry Play the Game video,from the album The game 1980.

[turesrock]

Brian uses Stratocaster in The Game video's 1980 circa.

[Silencer84]

In the time of hendrix, he didn't have a 5 way selector switch right?

[TheGargoyleLives]

@Silencer84 That is correct, but guys like him and Clapton and Zappa and George Harrison would get the switch in between the set sounds for your other combinations.

[whynottalklikeapirat]

@Silencer84 they'd balance it just between positions - its not too hard. Some would make it stay there with a piece of a match plugging it tight.

[KennyWithaRPG]

Did you just thank yourself?

[sgperson101]

i still don't think u can beat the red special.

[EPI6fingers]

I would like to see Edward Van halen and Brian may do another Album together. I have the Blues Rock Album they did together back in 1982 Star Fleet Progect. Simply Brilliant!

[MrWoodoop]

was that albert lee in the live video playing aswell? :D

[MrSIGMASYD]

недурно

[Veggamattic]

Who thinks it's a shame that there isn't more of Brian May and David Gilmour together. That's some serious musical talent

[satchizgod]

1st time in my life i saw Brian May with any other guitar than the red special. :P

[mobby1986]

@satchizgod

except the telecaster he uses for cracy little thing called love ;)

[riccardo1110]

@mobby1986

and the Jackson-Flying "V" he uses for "the princes of the universe"

[AlbertSuell]

@mobby1986 And the Fender Stratocaster, in "Play The game" and the Flying V in "Princes Of The Universe" =)

[Zhaggysfaction]

@mobby1986

I've seen him with a white Jackson Randy Rhoads. I think it's on some Queen video actually, not sure though.

[ParusChannel]

@mobby1986 And except the Stratocaster in Play the Game, and the Flying V in Princes of the Universe XD

[guitarricktrue]

@mobby1986 And in the video of the Play the Game...

[1DarkSideOfTheMoon1]

@mobby1986 also a Jackson Rhoder V in Prince of the Unverse and another Telecaster yellow and black in Back Chat

[JustABitOfRocknRoll]

@mobby1986 he uses that strat in the play the game video

[hardyslash]

@mobby1986 And the Flying V in Princes Of The Universe :D

[shaindaman13]

@satchizgod It is rare, but he did play other guitars. ""Crazy Little Thing Called Love" was a Strat I believe.

[sebasredspecialfan]

@satchizgod And in a Queen video he uses it as well, he uses a strat (the one he is holding I think) because he throws it to Freddy

[TheRealEpsnico]

@satchizgod what about crazy little thing called love (plays a telecaster) and las palabras del amor (plays some other guitar I don't know) ?

[TheRealEpsnico]

@TheRealEpsnico didn't see the commentary by mobby1986, forget the first part

[LivioAster]

@satchizgod cuz you haven't seen princess of the universe's video

[aufgefuhrten]

@satchizgod in 1980 "Queen - Play the game" official videoclip the solo guitar part

[Samulitre]

@satchizgod and the guitar that he used in the video of play the game

[19michal98]

@satchizgod In play the game he use a Stratocaster

[HarveyBacktheBeatles]

@satchizgod He used to play a strat during Crazy Little Thing Called Love and on anothe video he doesnt use it because he didnt want to break his rs when he tossed it

[sebamar23]

@satchizgod except for a stratocaster in the video of play the game

[ale9164]

I got one vintage Fender all custom last week and I fell in love yet!! It doesn't have any serial number, but it plays like heaven... It loses a lot of paint on the handle going to my finger, but I know that it's old and I need to fix it... maybe one day I will have some time to do it to my electric baby...
