chorusUnknown Chorus pedal (model unknown, likely Boss CE-2 or amp chorus)
delayUnknown Delay pedal (model unknown, likely digital delay)
Notes
Studio recording, 1993 (album: Aries). No direct evidence for exact amp/guitar in sources, but all available covers, tutorials, and genre/era context point to Stratocaster into a clean solid-state amp with chorus and delay. No evidence of live rig for this solo.
