Brian May always had a great guitar sound.....here's a nice replica (He and his father made his original guitar....the neck came from wood in their fireplace).....

 

Like a Les Paul it has a mahogany neck and body....it appears to have single coils but they sound more like humbuckers....

If you want to know if the copies sound like his guitar ? Yes Most of the Tri Sonic loaded guitars with his 6 switch system do but you'll need a Boost also to get those sounds

 

 

 

FWIW, the newer Brian May brand ones do NOT have the Burns Tri-sonics like the models from a few years back; instead the come with "Brian May" pickups, which IMO are MUCH less desirable. Having had both the earlier and later versions, I can say for sure that while they are both solid guitars, the newer ones just don't have the same tonal variation with the non-Tri-Sonics...YMMV
