Notes

Studio recording, 2014-2015 era. Gear confirmed via pedalboard and amp photos from Equipboard. No direct studio session notes, but this is the only guitar/amp pair consistently associated with Eli Maiman for this song/era. No evidence of alternate guitars or amps for the solo section.

Difficulty

The solo requires intermediate-level rhythmic precision, clean articulation, and control of delay repeats, but does not involve advanced techniques or high speed.
