Tie Your Mother Down

The original chain is unusually well documented: Red Special bridge and middle pickups in phase, Dallas Rangemaster treble booster always on, and a mid-1960s Vox AC30 Normal channel with volume at maximum and cut at zero. May set the guitar volume around halfway for the rhythm and raised it to 8–10 for the solo. Source: Guitar World’s “Secrets Behind Brian May’s Guitar Sound on Tie Your Mother Down” (2018).
