Notes

Studio recording, 2007 (No World for Tomorrow album). Mesa/Boogie Triple Rectifier is confirmed for studio use; Travis Stever used Les Pauls with high-output humbuckers. Slight mid boost and delay added for solo. Some sources mention Bogner blended, but Mesa/Boogie is primary for leads. Effects chain kept simple in studio.

Difficulty

The solo requires advanced technique due to its speed, phrasing, and articulation, as well as managing clarity and sustain with high-gain and delay effects.
