Brian May BMG 'Red Special' LE Jubilee Gold 2026

BRIAN MAY GUITARS BMG SPECIAL – GOLD

Inspired by Brian May’s legendary Red Special, the BMG Special brings the unmistakable design philosophy of one of rock’s most iconic guitarists to a superbly crafted, highly versatile production instrument. Developed by Brian May Guitars in collaboration with Brian and his long-standing technician Pete Malandrone, the Special combines distinctive styling, exceptional playability and a remarkable range of tonal possibilities.

Finished in striking Jubilee Gold, this eye-catching example offers a distinctive alternative to the traditional finishes, complementing the guitar’s unique design and unmistakable rock ’n’ roll character. With its chambered mahogany body, three Tri-Sonic-style pickups and innovative switching system, the BMG Special delivers everything from rich, rounded cleans to the powerful, harmonically rich tones associated with Brian May himself.
