Notes
Studio recording, estimated based on Joe Pass's known gear for studio jazz recordings in the 1970s-1980s; no direct evidence for the 2025 remaster session, but all available sources and audio indicate classic ES-175/Polytone setup. No evidence of pedals or additional effects in riff/clean section.
