Notes
Studio recording, 1997 (The Lonesome Crowded West). Guitar model confirmed by Songsterr tab for this song. No direct source for amp, but era and band budget suggest common 90s combo amp. No evidence of pedal use in solo section; some live performances reportedly without pedals.

Difficulty
The solo requires intermediate control of whammy bar vibrato, dynamic picking, and phrasing, but does not involve advanced speed or complex techniques.
