Notes

Studio recording, 1989 (from 'In Step' album). Evidence points to use of main Stratocaster and Vibroverb amp for the solo. Dytronics FS-1 Cyclosonic Panner effect also used on this track. No Tube Screamer or other gain pedal confirmed for this specific solo. Settings are based on cited SRV amp settings and typical studio practice for this song.

Difficulty

The solo demands expert-level touch sensitivity, dynamic control, and jazz-influenced phrasing, making it challenging even for advanced players despite the slow tempo.
