The Works Tour II (12.01.1985 - 15.05.1985)

Some important changes since the previous tour. John didn't play guitar on stage anymore and a couple of instruments were changed. Here we go:

Percussion

Drums: Ludwig Classic series drum kit in the Chrome Wrap finish bass drum: 26"x16" snare: 14"x6.5" toms: 12"x11", 13"x12", 14"x13" floor toms: 16"x16", 18"x16" Ludwig Classic Tom

Cymbals: Zildjian (brilliant finish) hi-hats: Avedis New Beat 15" crashes: Avedis Rock Crash 18", Avedis Medium Thin Crash 18", K Dark Crash ride: Avedis Rock Ride 20" chinas: Wuhan 20", Avedis China High 22" Hardware: Ludwig (from the top 'Hercules' series) + Ludwig Speed King pedal Effects: 5 Simmons Electronic Drums Pads The bass drum logo was the white 'Queen' writing (The Works font) on on a black background.

Bass guitars

Three Fender Precisions: '68 model (left) as his main, Elite 1 as back-up and Special (right) for Under Pressure. During Another One Bites The Dust he played the Musicman Stingray (second left) which he'd recorded the song with.

Guitars

Brian's main was the Red Special (with the Gibson Flying V as back-up). He also used a Gibson Chet Atkins in Is this The World We Created and an Ovation in Love Of My Life. In Crazy Little Thing Called Love Freddie played a Fender Telecaster and Brian used three different guitars: the Red Special, the Ovation and another Telecaster. Spike had a Gordon Smith for Hammer To Fall.

Keyboards

Freddie's Steinway. Spike also played some songs with a Yamaha CP80 Electric Grand Piano. As for synths, there was a Roland VP-330 used in Radio Ga Ga and very probably also a Roland Jupiter 8 (it was the synth used for recording Radio Ga Ga and I Want To Break Free and Spike used it on tour in both 1984 and 1986). The other can be an Oberheim OBX-a or an OB8.

Vocals

Shure vocal mics, same as on the previous tour.
