My humble solo rendition of these two iconic Queen songs.
I've tried my best to capture the emotion of Freddie Mercury's vocal and piano performance as well as the incredible feel and power that the great Brian May, Roger Taylor and John Deacon created.
Not an easy feat in one unedited linear performance! For all my tone quest friends, here’s the gear I used:
1947 King George Sixpence coin as used by Brian May
Ibanez prototype ATZ-100 signature guitar (to be released 2019)
Mesa Boogie Lone Star Special head w/ 1x12 Transatlantic cab
Mesa Boogie Lone Star 2x12 combo
JHS modded Blues Driver
Xotic AT BB preamp
Strymon Timeline
GigRig G2 switching system
Both amps on, running in stereo with the Strymon splitting the signal.
2 SM 57s for mic-ing into Neve 1272 mic preamps. Recorded in Logic with
a smidgeon of additional echo added in mixing.Video by Joslin Dsouza www.joslinmusic.com

The one thing I think let's his playing down is his tone . Un dynamic and too compressed . Also the look of those pickups fuck that .

Holy Buh-jesus. He is hands down my favorite player for bringing vocal lines to life in a guitar solo such as this. Just on a whole-nuva-level

@Steve-ih7dg Год назад

There are so few guitarists who can play the instrument in such a way as to bring vocals to life. Andy is a master at doing so. The thought he puts into where on the fretboard he is best placed to be at any point to capture the vocal characteristics he is emulating; how he picks each note; and then there's his use of equipment to serve the song. Wonderful, wonderful stuff.

Since the movie came out, popularity of the Bohemian Rhapsody became enormous among musicians and many made covers (e.g. Generation Axe), but non of them did it like Andy. This is by far the best published rendition of this tune, truly emotional , 100% correct and without unnecessary improvisations. Not to say that it is a fully guitar "A Capella" without backing tracks to fulfill gaps. No gaps with Andy :). I like the background too, Vox with broken speaker cover, Marshall with half missing logo...all in all, perfect video!

Good night, this man has a gift from God! Very talented. I have never heard such a great version of this song (I heard Vai, Malmsteen, Wylde, do this song but Andy does it way better, classy and tastier than those 4 guys ever could! Plus, he does it by himself! And does a superb job! As much as I respect Vai and those guys, Andy has a completely unique style of playing) Had no idea you and Brian May use a coin to play, ha. May you use your gift from God to glorify the Almighty!

@AccuracySpeaks 5 лет назад

Without a doubt, he is brilliantly gifted, and a very hard worker!! I think Andy is simply giving Brian May a nod using a sixpence. I have some signature picks that Andy actually sent me, and they're DunlopTortex Jazz 3's.
