Notes

Studio recording, 1990. Dimebag used the Washburn 333 with Bill Lawrence L500XL in the bridge for the solo. The amp was a Randall RG100ES, with a Furman PQ-4 parametric EQ and MXR 6-Band EQ in the rack. No evidence of tube amps or other guitars for the solo. No evidence of live/touring gear for this recording.

Difficulty

The solo is technically demanding due to its speed, advanced picking and legato passages, frequent use of pinch harmonics and whammy bar, and the need for tight, articulate phrasing at high gain.
