I think the screaming chick threw out his ears and affected his fantastic playing!

[TomasLerpiniere]

I swear he completly hates doing this solo

[kenhaya1305]

Excellent! I respect him!

[DanThomasMusic]

The guitar is a Kz belonging to Gerben Van Dooremaal. He played it out of key!

[TheOngelma]

Brian May is GOD <33<3 and the best guitarist ever!

[pyjm84]

Luckily, he's rich and famous enough to play his own solos as terribly as that and get away with it.

this was beautiful

[khashoggi191]

the story of this guitar was on brian's soapbox . it is a fan's set up . not brians ...

[Queenrock990]

How the fuck can anyone dislike THIS???

Love you Brian! <3 <3 <3 <3

[stageprincess88]

totally not his original. the white tremolo tip is a dead giveaway. the one on brian's original is sharper and has a green shade. (good ol knitting needle)

brian also attached his WWRY six pence to the headstock of his original. (which isn't on his super)

[pipoandrea]

Brian May is like the Chuck Norris of guitarrist

[BoomerProduction96]

Als ik dat wist!!! Was ik er bij geweest!

[ScottNicholasSimpson]

Legend.

[rden94]

He rarely plays the original, and this isn't it. And yeah he messed up a bit, but it still worked hahaha. He's awesome!



[LowFlyer1200]

he was off a bit.. right.. you know that Brian, don't you... has it been that long?

[Steffen1989]

It's not the original old lady that he's playing there.

[jozio1014]

@012jack012 how do you know that?????

[Theo1190]

@Steffen1989 i think it is....look at the tremolo!?

[fairyfellermaster]

@Theo1190 look at the headstock his is the only one that has a sixpence on it and this one doesn't.

[MrNek36]

@Steffen1989 Agree and I thing the coulor of the original lady was a little bit discoulored. After so many years is absolutely normal

[rkisf90]

@MrNek36 Brian May did have his "old lady" restored 2 or 3 years ago has he was having some problems with it but I'm not entirely sure whether he still plays it on stage has he had copies made by RS guitars and Greg Fryer guitars which he has played on stage in last couple of years.

[roughjustice88]

This guitar looks like one of the 'Brian May Supers' ... it was either out of tune or May was playing in the wrong key for a short time lol. At University, I wrote my disertation on the original guitar itself and the commercialization/production of the guitar. The guitar was fully restored and Brian continues to use the original, the 3 copies made by Fryer are his back up to my knowledge. He's also got Guyton copies, you should check out some of the pages on the restoration.
