Notes

Studio recording, 2022. Gear inferred from Matt Bellamy's known studio setup for the 'Will of the People' album era. No direct source confirms exact gear for 'Euphoria' solo, but this is consistent with Muse's studio practices in the 2010s+.

Difficulty

The solo requires advanced legato and tapping techniques, precise synchronization with delay repeats, and dynamic control for expressive lead phrasing, making it challenging for most players.
