Notes

Studio recording for 'Darker Still' (2022). Jeff Ling used ESP LTD EC-1000 Evertune with EMG 60 in neck and Fishman Fluence Modern in bridge, as confirmed by Premier Guitar. Kemper Profiler used for amp tones, profiling Peavey 5150/6505 with Mesa 4x12 cab. Settings estimated based on genre, era, and typical Parkway Drive tones. No explicit pedalboard or amp knob settings for this solo found in sources.

Difficulty

The solo requires intermediate lead technique, including expressive bends, smooth legato, and precise timing to match delay repeats. While not extremely fast or technical, it demands good control and phrasing for a singing, emotive lead.
