We Are the Champions

"We Are the Champions" is a rock anthem by Queen, written by lead singer Freddie Mercury and originally released on the band's sixth album, News of the World, in 1977. It became a worldwide hit, reaching the top 10 in numerous countries, and was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 2009. For electric guitar players, the song offers a blend of powerful rhythm work, dynamic chord progressions, and iconic riff phrasing that make it both approachable and rewarding to learn.

  • Written entirely by Freddie Mercury, the song showcases how simple, driving chord progressions can create an unforgettable rock anthem.
  • The track peaked at number 2 in the UK and number 4 on the Billboard Hot 100, demonstrating its massive commercial reach.
  • Voted the world's favourite song in a 2005 global music poll, it remains one of the most recognisable tracks to play on electric guitar.

Vox AC30

Brian May stacks Vox AC30s cranked to full volume, letting natural tube breakup and the Top Boost channel create the chimey, harmonically rich overdrive that defines Queen's sound. Driven hard by a treble booster rather than pedal distortion, these amps deliver the compressed, singing tone central to May's signature style.

May uses digital delay as a live equivalent to the tape echo (Echoplex) he favored in the studio, adding subtle spatial depth to his solos without cluttering his famously minimal effects chain. The DD-3 provides clean, repeating echoes that complement his vocal-like tone without compromising the directness of his treble booster-driven AC30 sound.
