Notes

Studio recording, 2006. Album: Erotic Cakes. Guthrie used his Suhr signature prototype (pre-Charvel era) and Cornford MK50H II amp for the album. No evidence of Victory, Fractal, or Charvel gear on this recording. Pedals and effects inferred from era, interviews, and audible effects in the solo.

Difficulty

The solo in 'Fives' is considered expert-level due to its rapid tempo, advanced legato and picking techniques, complex phrasing, and the need for precise dynamic and tonal control throughout.
