That's where the noisy came from as it used germanium transistors.

Primarily one unique guitar + six pence coin plectrum + curly Vox guitar lead/cable + Vox AC30 amps combined with a clever little electronics degree qualified Queen bassist John Deacon's 'Deacy TrebleBooster'.<br /><br />Besides such innovative choir voicing's (e.g. 'Killer Queen') and pioneering, unique uses of the Echoplex (check 'Brighton Rock') this man hand-built his own 'Red Special' guitar with his father out of a 100 year old fireplace and has rarely played anything else. <br /><br />Besides being a highly intelligent, creative musician/composer, Dr. May also has a Ph.D in astrophysics! <br /><br />What an amazingly talented and diverse individual as well as a truly gifted guitarist.Rand Blisshttp://about.me/rand_blissnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5913752433926766420.post-85999210745259709212013-08-23T11:32:50.432-07:002013-08-23T11:32:50.432-07:00Well, Brian May rates rather highly in my book. I ...Well, Brian May rates rather highly in my book. I grew up listening to a lot of Queen - and a lot of AC/DC also. Two amazing bands, two guitar players with equally amazing sense of tone, melody and sheer power.<br /><br />I have to go listen to the Boh Rap now...hzandbits sound effectshttp://www.hzandbits.comnoreply@blogger.com
