Notes

Studio recording, 1978. Gear inferred from era, band interviews, and period photos. No direct evidence of pedals or effects used on the original studio solo. Chris Stein is known to have used a 1972 Fender Telecaster and Fender Twin Reverb in the late 1970s. No evidence of live/touring substitutions for the original recording.

Difficulty

The solo requires clean, fast picking and articulation on a bright, cutting tone, but does not involve advanced techniques or complex phrasing.
