Notes
Studio recording, 1992 (album: The Extremist). Gear confirmed for studio session, not live. Chandler Tube Driver and Cry Baby wah used for solo tone. Eventide H949 for detune effect. Kramer Pacer used for leads on this album, not Ibanez JS (which came later).

Difficulty
The solo requires advanced legato technique, expressive bending, and precise wah pedal control, making it challenging for most players. The phrasing and sustain demand expert-level touch and control.
