When I hear the iconic music of Queen, one cannot escape the genius that is Brian May. The guitar sounds of all the Queen arrangements are from Brian. The most iconic riff is from "Bohemian Rhapsody ". His iconic guitar, the Red Special, was homemade with parts in his father's garage set to wood from an 18th Century fireplace. He still plays with that guitar since 1969.
