Effects & Signal Chain

Notes

Settings and gear are for the original studio recording, but live performances from the early 1990s used the same core rig for the solo section. The solo is played with the bridge pickup, as confirmed by multiple sources. Effects include Marshall The Guv'nor pedal and Roland SDD-320 Dimension D chorus in the studio; live, the chorus effect may be substituted with a pedal or omitted.

Difficulty

The solo demands advanced blues phrasing, expressive vibrato, wide bends, and control of sustain and feedback, making it challenging for all but experienced players.
