Brian May

Brian May is an amazing guitarist. For most of his life he played with John Deacon, Roger Taylor, and Freddie Mercury in Queen, one of the best bands to EVER come out of England.

In a musical career spanning 30 years, Brian May has done some of the most incredible guitar work ever heard by man or beast.

In most pictures of Brian, you see his guitar -- the one he built in 1964 with the help of his father. In 1984, Guild built 316 copies of this guitar. In 1993-94, Guild again released the Brian May guitar, but this time with vastly improved pickups (by Seymour Duncan, the best pickup company around) and a knife-edge tremolo system that mimics Brian's "Red Special" exactly.

For those of you who have asked, I don't know what happened to Gonzalo Plaza's page or the list of BHM Signature & Professional owners. I have been unable to contact Gonzalo lately (since mid-summer anyway).
