Notes

Live performance from 2024 Luck and Strange Concerts. Gilmour is known to use his Black Strat with EMG DG20 pickups for modern live shows, running into a Hiwatt Custom 100 and Yamaha RA-200 rotary speaker for the solo. Some sources mention Alessandro Redbone Special as part of his current live rig. Effects are primarily from pedals, not amp. This is a live performance, not studio.

Difficulty

The solo requires advanced control of bends, vibrato, and phrasing, as well as managing sustain and delay timing for Gilmour's signature expressive lead style.
