Cool!! You can hear the Deaky amp bit in "Bohemian Rhapsody", after the operatic bit!!! -Obsessed fangirl who just found out about this.

The song "Procession" from Queen's debut album, Queen, used the Deakey amp too.

(About the guitar sound in the song, "Procession")

Brian May: You know what that is? That's this Deakey amp. It's a little one-watt amp that John Deacon built and brought into the studio one day. I had done "Procession" with AC30s, and it sounded just a little bit too smooth. I wanted it to sound more violin-like and orchestral, so I double tracked some of the layers using that amp. Incredible. (Excerpt of an interview from the magazine, Guitar Legends.)
