Notes

Studio recording for 'Set You Free' (2021, Doom Crew Inc.); Zakk Wylde is known to use his Wylde Audio guitars with EMG 81/85 pickups and his signature Wylde Audio Master 100 amp (Marshall JCM800-based) for both rhythm and solo sections. No evidence of alternate guitars or amps for the solo. Settings estimated based on typical Zakk Wylde/JCM800 studio use for heavy solo tones in this era.

Difficulty

The solo requires advanced picking speed, control of pinch harmonics, expressive wah pedal use, and accurate bends/vibrato, making it challenging for most players.
