Description

Under the supervision of Brian May himself, the Red Special, which has been his main guitar for over 30 years, has finally been completed as the high-cost-performance "Brian May Special"!
The pickup wiring that determines that unique tone has also been faithfully reproduced!
Each pickup can be turned on/off in series, just like the original, and a slide switch for phase allows for a wide variety of tones to be obtained. Of course, just like the original, the body has a chamber structure with a hollow interior.
Experience the warm, fat sound of the mahogany body and neck, and ebony fingerboard!
