Brian May GuitarsBMG Arielle Electric Guitar 2-Tone Burnt Orange and Trans Blue
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Co-developed with Arielle, the BMG Arielle is a right-handed solid-body six-string with a Korina body, a 24-inch-scale one-piece mahogany neck, and an ebony fingerboard. Three series-wound Tri-Sonic-style single-coil pickups work with Brian May’s phase-switching system. Master volume and tone controls handle the onboard circuit. Hardware includes a Wilkinson WVP tremolo bridge and Grover tuners. Its two-tone burnt orange and trans blue finish is joined by a raised center strip, two-piece pickguard, and chrome hardware.
