Notes
Studio recording, 1988. No direct evidence for exact guitar/amp, but Telecaster into Fender Deluxe Reverb is the overwhelmingly standard setup for Nashville/Muscle Shoals country sessions of this era, and matches the audible tone. No evidence of alternate guitars or amps for the solo section.

Difficulty
The solo requires intermediate-level country phrasing, with clean bends, dynamic picking, and clear articulation, but does not involve advanced speed or complex techniques.
