Notes
Live at Woodstock, August 1969. This is the original studio/live rig for 'Soul Sacrifice' solo. No evidence of pedals or effects other than amp reverb. No PRS or Mesa/Boogie at this era. All sources confirm a dry, direct tone with no pedals.

Difficulty
The solo is technically demanding due to its fast tempo, extended improvisation, and expressive phrasing, requiring advanced control of bends, vibrato, and dynamics at high energy.
