About this deal

Having used this guitar over a period of several months - most extensively during show work for "We Will Rock You" - we're happy to report that the tones available are not only unique but also very reminiscent of Brian's own. Racism and the KKK made the situation even worse, which reflected in the music, instrumentation gradually changed and the lyrics told stories of fear ("KKK Blues"), aimless wandering ("Walkin' Country Blues"), alcoholism ("Too Much Drinkin'"), but also the flight from prevailing conditions, maybe with another perspective for life and the future in the big cities ("Ticket for Chicago").

I love that guitar, its pickups, amazing ergonomics and super fast neck (I’m not a super fast player though).

Take the basic concept, move it into the "modern wild west" and what you get out of it is straightforward Texas Blues. He noted that it's not meant to be played in one day, neither songs separately, as far the thread can be followed, but nevertheless it should be enjoyed in the prolonged period of time. Being quite obsessive by temperament, Rea had to get to the bottom of this phenomenon so he went out and bought almost every book on the subject extant. Always was a fan of the Road to Hell 😉 I remember Chris Rea saying in an interview how his manager advised him not to release 11 cd's because it would be commercial suicide. At the time it came out, there were a few harrowing interviews where Chris was thinking this would be the last music he made, due to cancer.

Isn't that the guy of "Driving Home For Christmas" and "On The Beach", songs that are played to annoying death on any radio station around the world?Finance is provided by PayPal Credit (a trading name of PayPal UK Ltd, Whittaker House, Whittaker Avenue, Richmond-Upon-Thames, Surrey, United Kingdom, TW9 1EH). Chinery intended the project to be an homage both to D-Aquisto and to the artistry of the archtop guitar.

People suddenly found themselves in a completely different situation and this instantly influenced the Blues, the electric style, developed earlier on in Electric Memphis and Texas Blues, remained, however became harder and edgier, instruments like the saxophone were incorporated into the music and gave this new hybrid a sometimes jazzy feel. All the foundations of the trademark BM sound are present and correct, with construction, pickups and electronics faithfully reproducing the original's unique character and tonal versatility.

True to the look and spirit of the "Old Lady", the instantly recognisable pinstripe-bound, double cutaway mahogany body shape features an acoustic chamber modelled on Brian's original design that enhances the Special's natural resonance and decreases weight.Certainly from a distance, they look very similar as regards body shape, pickups, controls and dot arrangement for the 24 frets. albums took me the best part of a year to work through them all a few times and pick out what I liked and was less fussed over. One would expect that such an overabundance produced over a compacted period would no doubt end up being terribly repetitive in both scores and lyrics. Plus Driving Home For Christmas is a staple -aat year was the first time I didn't play it on the way home on the last working day for as long as I can remember, because I was working from home due to poxy covid. It is also worth noting that the Blue D’Aquisto Centura Deluxe was featured at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in the museum’s “Guitar Heroes” exhibit in 2011.
