I can't believe it's not insured. :sad:
Insurance usually only pays back fair market value, and home-made guitars generally don't have any of that. The fact that it's Brian May's guitar means it would draw a pretty penny from some collectors, but that's not the fair market. He could insure it for a specific amount through a high-risk carrier like Lloyds of London, but it would be expensive as hell. So, he just does as he says - keeps a close eye on it.
