Notes

Studio recording, 1993-1994 (Jar of Flies EP). Jerry Cantrell is confirmed to have used a Gibson Les Paul Studio and a Marshall JCM800 2203 (Bogner-modded) for Alice In Chains' early/mid-90s clean tones. No evidence of acoustic for solo section; clean electric tone. Settings estimated from forum and wiki sources for clean/edge-of-breakup tone.

Difficulty

The solo requires intermediate-level phrasing, expressive bends, and dynamic touch to maintain clean articulation and sustain, but does not involve advanced speed or complex techniques.
