Notes

Studio recording, 2001 (Origin of Symmetry era). Gear confirmed for this era and song by multiple Muse gear discussions. The solo section is known for heavy use of effects, especially the Whammy and delay. No evidence of live rig or alternate guitars for the studio version.

Difficulty

The solo requires accurate Whammy pedal use, fast octave runs, and control over a saturated fuzz/delay tone, making it moderately challenging for intermediate players.
