Notes
Studio recording, year 2000. No direct source confirms exact guitar/amp for solo, but Yamaha Pacifica 904 and Vox AC30/AC15 are most probable based on era and artist interviews. No evidence of live rig or alternate guitars for solo section.

The solo requires intermediate technique, with expressive bends, vibrato, and precise timing to match the delay and modulation effects. While not technically extreme, it demands musical phrasing and dynamic control.
