Notes

Studio recording, 2014 (The Hunting Party). Brad Delson's tone for 'Final Masquerade' solo is processed through Fractal Axe-Fx III with impulse responses from a Randall cab. Guitar is a PRS Custom 24 with humbuckers. Effects are MIDI-controlled in the studio. No evidence of Orange or Hiwatt amps on this track; those are used for other songs/eras.

Difficulty

The solo requires intermediate technique with melodic phrasing, accurate bends, and expressive vibrato, but does not involve advanced speed or complex runs.
