Notes

Live and studio rigs are nearly identical for Phish post-2000s; solo section uses Komet 60 for lead, as confirmed by Trey’s tech. Year/era: late 1990s original studio, but modern live rigs (2010s+) use Komet 60 for solos. No evidence of alternate guitars or amps for this song’s solo.

Difficulty

The solo requires advanced phrasing, dynamic control, and precise use of effects, with fast runs and expressive bends that demand a high level of technical skill.
