Beschreibung Rückseite

The portrayal of each Queen musician's instruments with the Bechstein™ grand piano – which Freddie Mercury played for Bohemian Rhapsody – featuring at the top. The opening notes of Bohemian Rhapsody are indicated by featuring the keys on the piano pressed down. Meanwhile, the group’s logo is placed at the centre of the design and is underscored by the singer’s signature mic stick. Brian May’s ‘Red Special’ guitar - which he still plays using an old sixpence to give his unique sound – also features alongside John Deacon’s Fender Precision Bass™. Finally, Roger Taylor’s Ludwig™ bass drum is decorated with the Queen crest, as it appeared in the band’s early days.
