In 1963, Brian May and his father started to build the Red Special—an electric guitar meant to outperform anything commercially made. Here, Brian talks about his one-of-a-kind instrument, which he played on every single Queen album and during the band's amazing shows. Along with original diagrams, sketches, and notes, May includes a great selection of photographs of himself with the guitar as well as close-ups and X-rays.
