Notes

Studio recording, 1999. Gear confirmed for Enema of the State sessions. No evidence of additional pedals or effects used for the solo section; Tom DeLonge's rig at the time was famously simple: Strat with Invader into Mesa/Boogie Triple Rectifier. No evidence of effects loop or additional modulation/time-based effects in the solo.

Difficulty

The solo requires fast, accurate picking and tight palm muting, but does not involve advanced lead techniques or complex phrasing, making it accessible to intermediate players.
