Brian May Red Special guitar strap replica This guitar strap that we've named LEGEND BM BOHEMIAN has a story behind it... And we are happy to share it with you: This guitar strap is a re-creation of the one worn by music legend Dr. Brian May that accompanied the also legendary Red Special guitar. Here is the short version of the story behind this replica guitar strap: On 9 August 2018, we received an email from our distributor in the USA with the following subject line: "Strap Idea" which stated the following: "Hey guys - an interesting idea came about when talking with a big US dealer a few days ago. They noticed that the straps being used in the new Queen movie (Bohemian Rhapsody, 2018) do not look anything like the real Brian May strap he used. There are some photos in the email below. Do you think it is possible to re-create? " Our answer, of course, was YES. The truth is that looking for information about this strap we realised that there is not much history behind it, but that it became an icon after Queen's memorable performance at the 1985 Live Aid in London, at Wembley Stadium. This performance was recreated in the film "Bohemian Rhapsody" and surely the art or costume director of the film lacked inspiration when recreating the guitar strap worn in the film by Gwilym Lee (Brian May in the film) as the result is quite far from the original strap.
