This 2005 Red Special was made during the transition from Burns Guitars to Brian May Guitars. There are more accurate, and more expensive, Red Special models out there, but this one's got everything you need. The exponential range of tones you can get from this guitar's 3 pickups, 3 pick-up on/off switches and 3 pick-up in/out phase switches is staggering - and gives you plenty of options to recreate the sound, if not always the God-like dexterity, of the main man Brian May.
Emily's playing this through a 1975 AC-30 Top Boost. Apart from the AC-30 being the combo of choice throughout Brian May's career, this one also has its own bit of history. It was formerly owned from new by Alan Williams, lead singer/songwriter of The Rubettes, glam supergroup of the Seventies - most famous for guilty-pleasure floor-filler "Sugar Baby Love". He bought his first AC-30 in 1968, and has been a convert ever since. Pure gold.
