One Vision - one take using AmpliTube...and the '84 Guild!

[@higgy7620]

Harder than it looks to play that guitar, the red special is hard to play as Brian may has huge hands and long fingers , bravo sir!

[@MarcoGDiMarco]

Thanks

[@333daveh5]

No he hasn’t - but then it’s all relative. I suppose if you have stumpy little hands then BM’s would look big!

[@brianmaysguitar7252]

@@333daveh5 Brian does actually has some large ass hands and fingers.

[@Hoscitt]

It's shorter than Gibson and Fender scales....

[@artemikRus]

@@Hoscitt but I heard that the neck shape of Red Special seems to feel really uncomfortable and strange after playing classic “C” and “D”s. And maybe the fretboard is wider than usual

[@manoffunk]

Awesome job sir! We all need our daily dose of Freddie and it never ceases to amaze me just how good he was. Hearing this song like this, with his vocals right in your face, it's mind blowing. I consider myself extremely lucky to have grown up seeing these guys in their prime Big thanks to you for keeping the music alive!

you know, i have seen other guitar players do that for decades. they reach for that tone knob between phrases...and never turn it!!! BB King was the worst about this. I think it's just habit or nervous energy.

[@melancholyman96]

I wonder if Brian used One Vision Guild when recording.

[@MarcoGDiMarco]

Me too

[@mah_lick67]

He used it

[@quanpunchman]

@@mah_lick67 No way to be sure. He could have just used it for the video and used the original for the recording.

[@itslikethesamebutdifferent8020]

If you look at the official video for the song you can see he’s using the Guild, however, when you see footage of them actually recording the song you can see he’s using the original Red Special although the Guild model is also in the studio. I believe he was plugging the Guild Brian May model since they had just been released the year before in 1984.

[@angelupus]

I think he used the original red spécial for recording since he said that 99% of the songs were recorded using it.. One of the rare occasions he didn’t (excepted the songs with acoustic guitar) was « Crazy little thing called love « because Mack (German sound engineer/producer for « The Game album) insisted that the red special sound didn’t fit the rockabilly song and Brian had to use a telecaster (Roger’s) against his will. It’s right that we can see Brian playing the Guild model in « One vision « video, he even wears a T shirt with « Guild guitars » on it, but I think this was more for promotion of the model.. I also read that Brian wasn’t so keen with the brand because the model didn’t sell that well (people couldn’t afford it due to its high price, apparently).

[@manuel0rh]

Bravissimo

[@MarcoGDiMarco]

Grazie

[@Shred_The_Weapon]

Even though I would probably have it refinished (not wanting a red model), I imagine I would love having one of these Guild models. I have owned several Guild acoustics since 2011 but never an electric model. Here’s something I could never figure out by myself. Does the whammy bar bend up, or just down? I’m accustomed to thinking that guitars that have a whammy bar and locking tuners do not bend both directions.

[@MarcoGDiMarco]

It goes up and down

Yes, I used the Chorus. I prefer Guild of course...another world in terms of quality.

[@claypage1089]

1. How well does the Kahler work with no locking nut? 2. Are those pickups passive? 3. How do you like this version compared to the present, more-accurate-to-original Brian May guitars?

[@MarcoGDiMarco]

1. A bit better than with it 2. Yes 3. The '84 Guild is a totally different approach to the original design, it's very different. Said that, the quality of this instrument (woods, construction, finish) is gorgeous.

Bravo sir! The Guild looks amazing! I've tried the "One Vision" preset on Amplitube 5 myself with a BMG Red Special and it sounds ok, but doesn't quite match the sound on the album. Do you use any of the Brian May presets or do you make your own for most of these videos?
