Effects & Signal Chain

Notes

Studio recording, 1993. Solo section used the Marshall Super Lead as the primary lead amp per producer Dave Jerden. Multiple amps were blended for frequency layering. Compression (Summit) was used on all guitars. Effects chain was minimal, with wah as the main pedal effect. No evidence of chorus, flanger, or delay on this solo.

Difficulty

The solo requires advanced wah pedal technique, expressive phrasing, and control of sustain and vibrato, making it challenging for intermediate players.
