In 1993, Guild re-introduced the Brian May Signature Series, a limited run of 1000 guitars, with three new models. This is he top model of the series, the BM01 and is a very close copy of Brian's Red Special.It features Seymour Duncan pickups, which are very good copies of the Burns Tri-Sonics on the Red Special. The Seymour Duncan pickups are a good copy of the original Burns Tri-Sonics. Brian modified the original Burns pickups on the Red Special by re-winding them with reverse windings and also by potting them with epoxy resin to prevent them becoming microphonic. The tremolo/bridge system is a custom Schaller unit, which is also a very good copy of Brian's original.The body and neck on the BM01 are mahogany and the fretboard is ebony. The body has binding on both the front and back and a 5-ply scratchplate. The construction of the BM01 is semi-solid, again exactly reproducing the details of the Red Special. This model is known as the Brian May Signature and featurs a transfer of Brian's signature on the back of the headstock.Addition features include the offset double cutaway bound mahogany body, black laminated pickguard, 24-fret ebony fingerboard with pearl dot inlay, tune-o-matic bridge/Brian May vibrato, blackface peghead with pearl logo inlay, 3-per-side tuners, chrome hardware, 3 single coil Seymour Duncan pickups, volume/tone controls and 6 slide switches.
