Notes

Studio recording, 2001 (Montreux performance also uses this setup). Guitar confirmed for 'The Prophet' solo; amp inferred from era and Gary Moore's known studio rig. No explicit pedalboard for this song, but effects inferred from both sources and audio.

Difficulty

The solo requires advanced control of vibrato, bending, and sustain, as well as expressive phrasing and dynamic touch, making it challenging for most players.
