Why Queenshow Stands Apart

The band performs using full period correct instruments and equipment inspired by the original setups used by Queen.

This includes faithful recreation of classic guitar tones, authentic amplification systems, vintage keyboard textures, and the layered harmonies that defined Queen’s sound. This level of authenticity allows the band to reproduce the sonic character of Queen’s legendary concerts with remarkable accuracy.

That is why we use an exact copy of the Red Special guitar, which was made for us in France by the luthier Mickäel Dansan. Brian May’s unique guitar sound is completed by the same set of effects he was using – the legendary Pete Cornisch TB-83 treble amplifier, The TB-83 Extra Duplex, Boss CE1 and the typical British classic Vox AC30 in the typical “vox guitar wall”. In the song Crazy Little Thing Called Love, a black Fender Telecaster must not be missing in the solo.

Acoustic tracks are played in the same way Queen played them – with two original Ovation Pacemaker 1615-4 12-string acoustic guitars and a Gibson Chet Atkins CE. Another must-have is Sunn 412L and Sunn 215BH along with the legendary Fender Precision and Music Man Stingray basses – John Deacon was playing the same ones. The show is full of the distinctive period costumes that can be seen at all concerts. The rhythm section uses the same drums as Roger Taylor, i.e. Ludwig Classic Maple drums in chrome finish, Hi Hat Zildjan Avedis 15″, which can be heard throughout the Queen era with Freddie Mercury. The other “sheets” used by Roger such as the 18-inch Zildjan Avedis Medium, Paiste 2002 Black and Red Label, or the larger 22″ Wuhan China and Zildjan Swish cannot be missing. The use of Roto Toms and the electric Octapad, which can be seen on Queen’s last tour are also heard in Queenshow. Acoustic set of songs involves a Ludwig vintage tambourine.

Songs from the 80s are enriched with the sound of the legendary analog synthesizer Yamaha DX7 and Roland VP 330 vocoder.

It is an honor for us as members of Queenshow to pay tribute to a legend that conquered the fan’s hearts in all over the world.
