This page has photos and video of the 3 Red Special replica guitars ‘John’, ‘Paul’ and ‘George Burns’ which I made for Brian May in 1996-1997.
I have a great many photos of the guitars taken between 1997-2007 which I hopefully will find time to sort through and scan at a later time. Hooroo, Greg Fryer

The following sequence of photos were taken by me in February 1998 at Brian May’s Allerton Hill studio during the recording of the ‘Another World’ album. On this particular night Brian was using my Red Special guitars, treble booster and the Deacy Amp to record one of the songs. I may have written the details somewhere in my diary or notes, and seem to remember that this was during the recording of either ‘Wilderness’ or ‘Why Don’t We Try Again’.
