Notes

Studio recording, 2006. Guitarist Barry Stock is seen using the Ibanez SZ320 during this era. Amp model not explicitly confirmed for the studio, but Marshall stacks are visible in period photos and are typical for this genre and band. No evidence of alternate guitars or amps for the solo section.
