Notes

Studio recording, 2006-2008 sessions for 'Chinese Democracy' album. Slash played the solo on the studio version using a B.C. Rich Mockingbird into a Marshall Silver Jubilee 2555. No evidence of live rig or alternate guitars for the solo section. Effects inferred from both interviews and audible cues.

Difficulty

The solo requires intermediate to advanced control of wah pedal expression, smooth sustain and vibrato, and accurate phrasing at moderate tempo. Not extremely technical, but demands expressive playing and good timing.
