Brian May Red Special
Artist Series Pedal
Seven signature sounds with fourteen unique variations, spanning over thirty years of tone. From the umistakable solos of "We Will Rock You" and "Bohemian Rhapsody" to the one and only 'Deacy' amp, the Brian May Red Special Pedal lets you walk in the footsteps of one of rock's most influential guitar masters and achieve one of guitarists' most sought-after tones.
Working closely with Brian May and Eddie Kramer, Senior Production Modelling Consultant (and world-class recording engineer), our Production ModellingTM team delivers the tone that has inspired a generation of guitarists. The meticulously crafted tones of the Red Special Pedal are modeled with the same gear used in the original recordings. Design your own unique tones using the Red Special Pedal's models and modes. Tweak the gain, level, bass, treble and control knobs to create your own tone.
We've even included a proprietary guitar knob that re-voices your guitar to sound like Brian's legendary Red Special's BurnsTM Tri-Sonic pickups.
The Red Special Pedal's cast metal treadle also offers Heel and Toe switches that let you select two distinctive tone variations of each model. The LED lights Green (toe) or Red(heel) to show the selection.
