IK Multimedia AmpliTube Brian May

August 19, John Deacon was born. The Queen bassist in now 70 with six children and a wife of some 45 years. All Queen members reside in the Songwriter Hall of Fame as they each orchestrated their own songs that became Queen anthems.

He retired in after a performance beside Elton John. No one could replace him, and he was his best friend. Deacon is known for being the shyer, more quiet member of Queen, but he is a true Rockstar and expert musician. Freddie said not to underestimate him, and all should take that to heart. True Queen fans see just how valuable Deacon was to rock history and as a person. Queen would not have been the same without Deacon, we wish him a very happy birthday. John was a very nice fellow to talk to and gave his account about finding the Deacy Amp circuit board and then what happened with putting the amp together and using it as a practice amp, and then taking the amp to band practice with Freddie, Brian and Roger.

Brian said that he thought they had changed something in the amp to help it cope better with the signal coming in from the treble booster. In the phone call with John I asked him if he had ever made Brian a treble booster in those early days of Queen, because for many years it has been reported that he had. John told me that he had not made a treble booster for Brian.

John said that he found the amplifier section in the back of a skip which was sitting on the side of the street in London, and that he noticed the wires dangling over the edge of the skip and picked it up before it was thrown out. John said that he was studying for a degree in Electronics at the time and was always tinkering with electronic bits and pieces, and that the circuit board looked interesting to him when he first saw it.

He thought that the transistor amplifier might have come from a cassette player or a radio. John thought at the time that he might possibly use it as a small practice amplifier — he played guitar as well as bass. John thought that this had happened in about and that he was already playing with Brian at this time. John said he already owned the hi-fi bookshelf speaker box which he then modified so that it housed the amplifier circuit board inside with no controls at all on the outside of the box.

The amp had a warm and pleasant sound although John said that it was always partly distorted and would never sound clean. However John quickly mentioned that all the work and discussions with sound engineers was never his area of interest, and therefore he was never privy to detailed information in this area. Freddie got herpes apparently? We love a king who knows his worth.

How many coffees? Is it easier for you to make another coffee or another tea? Just tell me what you want! We love a good support system. No cars could pass. But Freddie being extra, he was driven through in a limo while drinking champagne. They let him in, made him tea and chatted. This boy is so extra I swear to god They had clocks as promo items for News of the World and they sounded kind of fancy so I looked it up and Freddie would explore the gay club scene while the others got drinks, dinner and a club then would meet back up with Freddie at the hotel.

Either Deacy or Deaky, binch. Come on. Adding onto that, Staying Power and Body Language were thought to be too gay and Bri wanted things to be for everyone of different persuasions.

I was disappointed how much was just blown over with the recording process tbh. He was driving his new Porsche but then got his license suspended for a year. I mean, in a way, it worked??? We love a supportive queen. But for real, I looked into it and found an article and wowza. When sd! Deaky be an actual thing???? Bri and Fred watched it and according to Brian, Freddie loved it and sent his seal of approval.

Well I did some research on the Deacy Amp for a secret : thing that should come into being before too long. My brain: But you need to write a short fic about the making of the deacy amp and you need to do it now. Me: Well wattpad is down, ao3's text editor is kind of tricky, and nanowrimo really isn't the best for short stories.

A lot of interesting bits and pieces - like Brian talking about what he wanted from his guitar in terms of sound:. And this choice of Lily of the Valley as the song featuring the Deacy amp, and Freddie on the piano. This is Part 7 of a multi-part fic. Click the links below to read the Masterpost, the previous part, or the next part of the fic :.

Summary: When studying at Imperial College in the s, your path is crossed by a beautiful boy as much in love with the stars as you. The sun made you wonder. Made you wonder why it was shining in the first place. How wretched of it to shine so prettily when you felt so miserable. This was the kind of miserable in which you mope, staring out the window in a daze, and the only thing you are aware of is the frown on your lips; you opt for bitterness with every word and thought.

This is the miserable where you feel detached and lost, like you exist in one universe and your feelings in a neighbouring dimension. He merely pressed his lips together and ducked beneath his curls. That was how you knew he was avoiding you. This you knew because he ripped it in half as he stormed out of the door, following the lecture And he was glowering. You get along well. But Deacy was still trying to work out who it was you were supposedly at odds with.

So many. Not sure why. Yelling and throwing various instrumental gear. Drumsticks, microphone stands, cables… clumsily. Almost an amp, yesterday. He seemed so pained by your presence that wondered if perhaps there was something more to the death of his aunt, if you had unknowingly poured salt on a second wound.

You rubbed your eyes tiredly. I asked. We all asked. Whole phone lines came crashing down, apparently. You shook your head, then remembered that you were on the phone. And even if it were, we did worry, remember? Did he not tell you the same thing? Something to do with Mary, I think. You spent the rest of the afternoon studying. Or rather, you tried to study. The formulas and theories and diagrams mostly swirled across your page today, as much a spiral galaxy as the Milky Way. You speculated your lack of sleep and your lack of water could be the cause.

Or maybe your lack of interaction with other humans. No Heather, no Freddie, no Roger, barely John. And no Brian. At six thirty you threw on your scarf and coat and went out the door, a bottle of wine in one hand.

It was the rainbow scarf. You nestled your face into the wool and fibres tickled the tip of your nose, subtle scents of coffee and lilies shrouding you in their homely warmth. You returned the gesture and went on inside, offering the wine bottle which he accepted cheerily. He was just closing the door when there came a shout from the street. And honestly, you two are daft.

Roger was right; little flakes fluttered down from the dappled grey sky, dusting his hair, and now yours as well. You held out your hand and let the glittery while specks fall into your palm. Despite your love for warmth, you liked snow. It was like catching stardust. You swallowed, settling your features back into a mask of nonchalance. You tried not to think about the fact that you were the reason why Brian was moping.

Meanwhile, John and Roger bantered on as you hung up your coat and— and the scarf. You missed the majority of the conversation, having drifted into the abyss of your own thoughts once more. It was becoming a bad habit. Oh, perfect!

I'm bulding a Deacy amp

The amplifier circuit board from a Supersonic PR80 portable radio found in a builder's skip was fitted into a speaker cabinet and powered by a 9-volt battery. The amplifier had no volume or tone controls and for most of its history it was never broken thus never repaired. It was used along with Brian May 's Red Special electric guitar and treble-booster to produce sounds reminiscent of various orchestral instruments, such as violin, cello, trombone, clarinet, or even vocals, starting from the songs "Mad The Swine " an unreleased song from the album Queen and "Procession " from the album Queen II. These amplifiers produced a similar compressed and saturated sound but lacked the tonal characteristics that were so crucial to the unique Deacy sound. In , Nigel Knight became involved in the amplifier's development. Several prototype amplifiers were built that were continually edging closer to the sound of the original but all fell short of the mark when compared side by side with the real amplifier.

Today in Fandom History: August 19

By Wulver , September 7, in Effects and Processors. I have a few picks that are coins that were filed down smooth, in "pick shapes". Pretty interesting tones from them. Tapping - jeebus , you internetlliterates!!! Just go to your favorite iSource wiki and look up tapping. Once you get past 'tapping ass' and 'tapping kegs' you'll find an article that shows you that EVH came along about 2 DECADES after a technique and a whole guitar-biz was made around tapping Dave Bumker somewhere in WA developed a style and a series of guitars made specifically for tapping. I'm not saying he was the first, but he certainly got into it before EVH was even hatched. Most interesting indeed.

This is the original 'final prototype' Deacy Amp replica that was finally signed off by Brian May during a comparison test with his original Deacy Amp at Allerton Hill. The cabinet includes the Celestion G6 and 3" paper cone tweeter as fitted to the production replicas. It is serial number This is relevant as publically sold Deacy Amps started at , with amplifier serial numbers - being allocated to Brian, members of Queen and those within the BM circle. This is the first time an amplifier with a serial number less than has been put up for sale.

Boutique Amps inspired by the Deacy Amp - Introducing the Nine Volts of Glory

It sounds like a scene from a movie. A dark night in London, A young man walks alone, heading home after a long night of practicing with his band. As he passes a skip dumpster for the Americans out there , a splash of color catches his attention.

Brian May's "Deacy" tone: how would you replicate it?

Based on published schematics from a well-known replica Deacy amp, this board is pre-labelled with details of all the components which you will need to build your own amplifier circuit, which you can then attach to a speaker of your choice Or one of our own modified vintage Elac speakers and pop it all inside a speaker cabinet. Add power via a 9v battery, a Red Special guitar and a Treble Booster into the mix and away you go….. If you are reasonably confident at soldering, then you can order an unpopulated PCB and fill it with the correct parts and your own choice of transistors and audio transformers Eagle, Sowter, Hammond, Xicon, etc. Alternatively, you can buy a completed amplifier board, which comes fully assembled and tested ready to connect to a speaker, guitar and battery. The base PCB for building your own amplifier circuit. Just the board. No components, wires or connectors.

Lots of Deacy Amp rich guitar harmonies can be heard right from the opening seconds of Dreamers Ball. David tested the Deacy with his signal generator and scope and this showed us how the amp clips in a very asymmetrical way, which is undoubtedly one of many important reasons why the Deacy Amp sounds so unique.
