Notes

Studio recording for 'Untitled' (2003). Tom DeLonge used his signature Strat with a single Invader bridge pickup into a Marshall JCM900. No evidence of additional pedals for the main riff section; distortion comes from amp. Settings estimated based on genre, era, and typical DeLonge rig. No evidence of live/touring substitutions for the studio recording.
