The fun-sized Mini May features a compact Red Special flavoured body shape, headstock and pickguard, 22.9" scale length for enhanced intonation and playability, through-body strung fixed bridge with adjustable saddles, and a single Tri-Sonic style pickup.
Available in Metallic Cherry and Natural gloss finishes and complete with padded gig bag, this petite, lightweight instrument is a perfect carry-on travel companion.
The Mini May travelled with the maestro and Kerry Ellis on the Italian leg of the duo's intimate "One Voice" 2016 European tour, where the diminutive guitar made quite the big impression.
The charming Mini May gets its first ever live outing - Brian May & Kerry Ellis perform The Beatles' deep cut "Tell Me What You See" (from the 1965 "Help" LP) at The Obihall in Firenze, Italy, February 24th 2016.
A passionate, long-term Brian May Guitars fan, with a BMG Super, three Specials, Frank, a Rhapsody and Mini May in his on-stage arsenal for Pozytyvni.Pl and tribute act Queen Band, virtuoso Polish axeman Rafal Tudruj demonstrates exactly how big and expressive this travel sized guitar can be through a VOX VT40X amplifier.
Another marvellous Mini May masterclass - consummate Milanese virtuoso Frank Campese (guitarist with Italian power metal proggers Chronosfear and Queen tribute, Stones Cold Crazy) delivers his travel sized take on Dr. Brian May's "Brighton Rock" solo from Queen's triumphant '86 performance at Wembley Stadium.
I just love it.
It's awesome to see my son watching QUEEN videos and pretending to play. Hope soon he will start playing the Red Special for real.
