Notes

Studio recording for 'Purple' (1994, 2019 Remaster). Dean DeLeo stated the solo and main distorted parts were tracked with a '50s Supro amp, volume and tone both on 10. The guitar used for the solo is the 1978 Gibson Les Paul Standard with P-90s and rewired controls. No evidence of live rig (VHT, Marshall, Vox) being used on the studio recording. No explicit pedal use confirmed for the solo section.

Difficulty

The solo requires intermediate technique with expressive bends, vibrato, and dynamic control to achieve the singing sustain and articulation heard on the record. While not technically fast, the phrasing and touch are critical for authenticity.
