Effects & Signal Chain

Notes

Studio recording, 1999. Tom DeLonge used his signature Strat with a single Seymour Duncan Invader bridge humbucker into a Mesa/Boogie Triple Rectifier for the Enema of the State album. No evidence of pedals in the studio chain for this song; distortion is from the amp. No evidence of modulation or time-based pedals in the solo. Pickup selector is fixed to bridge (single humbucker).

Difficulty

The solo requires fast alternate picking and tight palm muting at a brisk tempo, but does not involve advanced lead techniques or complex phrasing.
