Well d'uh he's playing on a replica of the original. But I agree, he must've practiced for ages.

[@TheHomeExpert5]

This guy obviously plays fantastically, the guitarist sounds like the original, and yes you have to hand it to Brian May to come up with such original sounds from his guitar, the guy is obviously a Real Genius when it comes to playing the guitar. Not so much of a genius when it comes to the rest of the universe, but when it comes to playing the guitar and composing music for the guitar, the guy is a genius. I'm sure you guys know that Brian and his dad actually made the original red special guitar out of old pieces of scrap wood, and a knitting needle and some other various bits laying around. That blows me away, a dad and his son making a guitar that the son takes and becomes a rockstar with, with a totally unique sound just blows me away.

[@wolfwarren6376]

I totally agree that Brian May is a musical genius, but if you're saying that Brian May isn't a true genius, you'd be mistaken. Did you know that as well as his father Howard being an electronics engineer and a draughtsman for the Ministry of Aviation, Brian is himself a PhD in astrophysics from the Royal College London? The man is incredibly impressive.

[@TheHomeExpert5]

@@wolfwarren6376 as I said, Brian May is a musical genius and is super intelligent in other ways, but he denies Christ. So, according to the word of God, that makes him a fool.

[@wolfwarren6376]

Zechariah 12:10 well, since it is safe to speak in religion, that makes him a complete heathen. It's one of the reasons I can no longer listen to queen or any music but Buck Owens and Merle Haggard. Really I only wanted to see the guitar, because of how impressive the instrument is construction wise.

Unbelievably, and typically I suppose, 107 people didn't like Daniels excellent study of Brian's tone and style of playing.

[@Rose.Of.Hizaki]

Its been said that Brian may uses a 6 pence as a guitar pick. Though personally after experimenting myself, I always preferred a 20 or 50 pence peice for the angles. Though Im sure with the rounded edges on the 6 pence, Brian chews threw a new pack of strings every few days with practising.

[@dankerthanclanker]

Honestly, I used to be the same. Stick with something similar to a sixpence, the glide and stroke over the strings is good stuff whilst still being roughly pic size. The serrated edges do some good things, I've taken to using sixpences for lighter stuff with my ibanez!

[@davebain2656]

6 pence coins don't have rounded edges, it has a serrated edge, which is the very reason why he uses them, to get that scratching sound and also because regular picks are too flimsy
