MODEL 6. "Brighton Rock Solo - Live," Live at Wembley

'86, 1992

This song's famous solo originally appeared in a tune performed by a band

named Smile, of which Brian May and Roger Taylor were members. When

Queen performed "Brighton Rock" live, the number was often over nine

minutes long. During the solo, Brian would send his guitar signal to three

banks of amps: one for the main tone, and two for the ping pong (back-

and-forth) delay effect.

Toe (Green) Mode – This is Brian's main live tone. It's the Red Spe-

cial (with the neck and middle pickups turned on) plugged into a treble

booster and amplified with three Vox

ping pong delay.

Heel (Red) Mode – This is Brian's main live tone (as described above)

with an orchestral harmonizer that produces a three-part harmony.

Control Knob – Increases or decreases the delay time in Toe Mode, and

the pitch blend in Heel Mode.

Expression Pedal – Controls the delay amount in Toe Mode, and in

Heel Mode shifts from the orchestral harmonizer from a Minor to a

Major 3rd.

MODEL 7. Deacy Tone / "A Winter's Tale," Made in

Heaven, 1995

The lyrics to "A Winter's Tale" – the last Freddie Mercury would ever

write before his untimely death – are about Montreux, Switzerland. The

song's video also features images of Montreux. The band has a special con-

nection to the Swiss town, having bought a local recording studio there

in 1978. After his death, a statue of Freddie was erected in Montreux and

still stands there today.

Toe (Green) Mode - This is a model of the one and only Deacy, a bat-

tery operated amp designed and built by Queen bassist John Deacon. The

Deacy is responsible for the orchestrated guitar overdubs heard on many

Queen songs.

Heel (Red) Mode - This model is based on the solo from "A Winter's

Tale."

Control Knob – Increases or decreases the midrange in Toe Mode, and

the effect level (reverb and delay) in Heel Mode.

Expression Pedal – No function for this model.
