Playing tips

  • Use your amp's built-in reverb set to a moderate level to recreate the spacious feel of the original tone.
  • Focus on picking dynamics to achieve the articulate single notes characteristic of the original solo.
  • Experiment with your picking attack to enhance the treble-forward, biting attack of the tone.
