Notes

Studio recording, 2024. Gear inferred from Bellamy's recent studio use and typical Muse solo tones; no direct confirmation for this specific track, but consistent with Muse's modern studio setup.

Difficulty

The solo demands advanced control of effects, fast picking, and expressive phrasing, making it challenging for most players.
