Notes

Studio recording, 1996. Scott Lucas used a custom Telecaster with both guitar and bass pickups wired to separate outputs. For the solo, the bridge humbucker (guitar side) is used into a Matchless 120 Super Chief head and Marshall cabinet. No evidence of Vox AC15 or Ampeg bass amp being used for the guitar solo section in the studio version.

Difficulty

The solo is intermediate due to its melodic phrasing, dynamic picking, and need for precise articulation with moderate overdrive. It does not require advanced techniques but demands control and timing.
