Notes

Studio recording for 'The Middle' (2001, Bleed American album). Jim Adkins confirmed use of his 1979 Marshall JMP 2203 Mk II for all albums from 'Clarity' through 'Chase This Light'. No evidence of alternate guitars or amps for the solo section. No explicit pedalboard evidence for this specific recording; only general era gear confirmed.

Difficulty

The solo is accessible for intermediate players, featuring melodic phrasing and moderate tempo, but requires clean alternate picking and expressive bends for authenticity.
