Notes
Studio recording, 2015-2016 era (from 'Another One' album sessions). Settings and gear are based on studio context, not live. Guitar Chalk and Equipboard both reference Stratocaster and Twin Reverb as Mac's main studio setup for this era. No evidence of alternate guitars or amps for this solo section.

The solo is not technically fast or complex, but requires careful control of dynamics, expressive vibrato, and clean phrasing to capture the dreamy, warbly character of Mac's tone.
