News of the World Feedback Crown — Monumental Outro
The studio arrangement withholds melodic guitar until the final section, where May begins with controlled E feedback and expands a C power chord into open-position and octave-register lead/rhythm ideas. The precise recording controls are not documented, so this preset uses his established Red Special, treble booster and cranked AC30 chain with representative settings.
