Effects & Signal Chain

Notes

Live performance, Empire Pool Wembley, 1974. Effects and amp settings based on period-correct live rig and multiple sources. MXR Phase 90 phaser confirmed for 1974 live shows. Big Muff fuzz and Colorsound Power Boost likely in chain for solo. No evidence of delay or chorus in this solo. No amp reverb used (Hiwatt DR103 has no built-in reverb).

Difficulty

The solo requires advanced control of bends, vibrato, and sustain, as well as dynamic phrasing and touch sensitivity to achieve Gilmour's expressive style.
