"First, let me talk about tone..."
Now here's a man with his priorities straight. Thumbs up!
Haha thanks!
The intro is heavenly!
The treble booster in the Line 6 Helix is perfect for Brian’s tone. Great video on his style!
Thanks!
I never seen TB on Helix.
Another significant element of his tone is the use of coins for a pick.
"In addition to using his home-made guitar he prefers to use coins (especially a sixpence from the farewell proof set of 1970), instead of a more traditional plastic plectrum, on the basis that their rigidity gives him more control in playing." -Wikipedia
Actually, there's *no one* using a 'Red Special' like Brian's, 'Fireplace,' 'Old Lady.' His was homemade by Brian and his father. There's an interesting Wikipedia page on it, if anyone is interested. Great video, thanks Ross!!
Wow, didn't realise it was a 'homemade' guitar. That's awesome. Thank you!
@@RossCampbellGuitarist You're welcome. You should checkout the Wiki on it sometime. It really is very interesting. It took Brian and his father two years to build it, and the wood for the neck came from a 100'ish year old (in 1963) fireplace mantel.
@@RossCampbellGuitarist Great Video, good filming. There are a few BM guys out there that have built replicas of Brian's guitar. This link is an example of that.

There is a rig rundown he does where there is a clone that is pretty exact to his guitar. He uses it as a backup when performing. I think it went into production
Brian actually has put near 1:1 replicas of his "Old Lady" into production, but they cost a fair bit and the waiting line is rather long
I love how you explained Brian's vibrato. It's one of the things that makes his playing so recognizable, imo. You paying so much attention to detail blows my mind. Cheers!
+1000 please
Thanks, this video really explained that signature sound like no other.
Thank you Geoff!
That tone is spot on, good job.
Great. Been waiting for a video on this for ages now. Thanks.
Interesting bit of trivia; I read that one of May's inspirations for his approach harmonies was Jeff Beck.
Rory Gallagher
Fantastic, this colorful harmonies sound very majestic-ly (hehe Queen)
I used my Strat as well through Garageband and was able to achieve a good tone with your tips in my video! Thanks for all the great lessons!
There's something about Brian's playing that is pretty hard to replicate, I can't quite put my finger on it
typingbacon in more ways than one 😄.
It’s his vibrato. Without doubt.
Purchased BPG2 today. Excited to get started!
Just signed up for your advanced course. Cheers!
Great video and great deal! Just got BGP1&2!
Awesome. Thanks!
Thanks for putting this together. Why do digital harmonizers set to G Mag 3 + 5 sound awful? Have been trying to get my TC electronics to emulate Brian's sound. The end result with pitch shift or harmonizer is really awfully synth sounding. Not even close to sounding somewhat natural. Any pointers would be appreciated.
Great Video!
Thank you!
Great video! How about some videos on how to setup the harmonizer in multieffects! Thanks!
Great Video, I have been looking for a while so have a more Brian May sound in some of my tracks, this will surely help me out.
I have only one question, with the 4 harmonies you played, so with the 3th above and below the lead line, when recorded, how would you mix them in the way of panning I mean?
Where would you place the lead line and than the 3 harmonies in the panning?
I hope you can tell, because I can't seem to find a proper way to pann them right.
I will certainly look into more of your videos.
Thanks for the inspiration
Very good.
Great lesson! I was wondering Ross,, how many hours a day were you practicing ?
I have a pod go that has a bunch of pitch or harmony settings. I think it has a dual harmony so should I set one a 3rd below and the other a 5th below? Also can set the key, so G major?
Any idea how to create the guitar symphony of sounds he did in Good Company? Thanks! Keep the videos coming
He would have used the Deacy amp (small solid state built by bassist John Deacon)
He used different tunings on his guitar to get the tones needed.
great vid! scenarios and guitar shops ect if you ask em what do i need to get a brian may sound? if they dont know who he is? ask for a rory gallagher sound!! you will find you did right!
Is there any pedals we could use to get these similar harmonies effect like when Brian does when he play live? I was looking at Boss Harmonist and EHX pitch fork but unsure on which to use.
Those arent able probably track 3rds and 6ths across different scales which is very important. Look into the TC Electronic Quintessence.
Thanks for the section on 3rd abd 5th harmonies, but one question, and it's this question that brought me here. He can't play three guitars live, so what effects pedal allows you to harmonize with your lead note and 3rd and 5ths together? Most harmonizers only do two notes.
is the way you are using the eq, essentialy,like a treble booster effect unit?
🎸🤘👍
Im too dumb for this
*** Hey Ross, I could be wrong but I was looking at that site you've linked your courses on and when I clicked on the 'Preview This Course' thumbnail it appears to give away the whole lessons under 'sample lessons'.
Maybe it's just me but there seems to be a lot of content in the previews for free.
Shouldn't it be just excerpts of each lesson and not the whole lesson???
Not sure how you've set it up but seems odd.
J.
Hey man, there's a few full lessons that you can view for free. Definitely not the whole thing, just 4/5 I think.
No one confirms if it’s position 2 or 4 yet, I also wanted to know
I would call it the 2 position
Anyone here who's watching from the Philippines?
the camera is very close!
So basically, you're turning the melody/solo notes into diatonic chords with the roots being the solo notes, yes?
