Notes

Live performance at Finsbury Park, 2022. Guitar and amp confirmed by multiple sources for Sam Fender's live rig. Pedalboard includes Electro-Harmonix Small Clone chorus. No evidence of additional drive pedals for the solo; amp and chorus pedal are the core. Settings estimated based on typical Jazzmaster into Princeton Reverb for modern rock live tone.

Difficulty

The solo requires intermediate technique, expressive phrasing, and dynamic control to maintain clarity and articulation with a modulated, edge-of-breakup tone. The use of chorus and reverb adds complexity to note definition and sustain.
