Effects & Signal Chain

Notes

Studio recording, 2001 (Bleed American album). Tom Linton played the solo on a Gibson SG Standard through a Marshall JMP Superlead 100. No evidence of alternate guitars or amps for the solo. Effects chain based on studio-era pedalboard and audible effects.

Difficulty

The solo is melodic and accessible, but requires clean bends, good vibrato, and some quick picking; not technically advanced but needs control for clarity and sustain.
