Brian May Signature BMG Red Special Electric Guitar Nice! 14522
Description
This is a 2014 Brian May Signature Red Special guitar in red finish. It is in excellent playing and cosmetic condition. This is the model now made by Brian May's company who took over production from Burns of London a few years back. They improved the bridge with the Wilkinson that has better saddles. Still has the same Tri-Sonic pickups and locking Grover tuners, and of course May's signature switching matrix.
All electronics work and sound great on this. Has a wide neck and the guitar is very resonant. Cosmetically, there are no dings, only mild scuffing on body and pickguard. Frets are in very good shape. Looks like it may have the original plastic still on the pickguard. Weight is 7 pounds, 5 ounces. I do a full cleaning and setup on all guitars. (Details on my setups and packing at bottom of listing.) Thanks for looking.

Guitar Setup
All setups are done by our in-house luthier. Setup includes new strings (9s or 10s depending on what the nut is cut for), overall polish, cleaning any gunk off fingerboard, oiling neck, and polishing frets when necessary. We spray out any pots that are noisy, turn the truss rod (if necessary) and set string height at low-to-medium action depending on string buzz present. Since setup is highly subjective you may need to get it set to your particular needs by your personal luthier. Basses get the same treatment minus the string change. Thanks!
Packing
I use quality boxes, thick bubble wrap, and peanuts to pack guitars. I have a very high rate of successful guitar and bass shipping (meaning few damaged instruments). I have been doing this 10 years and know how to pack well--with or without a hard case. I wrote a detailed story with photos on how I pack a guitar, which you can find on my StillKickinMusic site blog. If you Google "THERE IN ONE PIECE...How to Pack a Guitar" you will find it. Thanks.
