Notes
Studio recording for 'Homesick' (2009). Evidence from Equipboard and interviews confirms the use of the EVH 5150 III and ESP LTD EC-401B with EMG pickups for this era. Ibanez TS9 Tube Screamer used as a boost in front of the amp. No evidence of additional pedals or effects for the solo section.
