Notes

Studio recording, 1990 release. Guitarist Chris Risola. No direct evidence of pedals or effects chain for this specific solo, but JCM800 2210 is confirmed as the amp used on the album. Guitar model inferred from Equipboard and era-appropriate Ibanez S-series usage.

Difficulty

The solo requires advanced bending and vibrato technique, fast legato passages, and expressive phrasing, making it challenging for most guitarists.
