Notes

Studio recording, 2021-2022 (from 'Gabriel' album era). No explicit amp model confirmed; Keshi is known to use direct recording with Universal Audio Apollo x8 and outboard gear. No evidence of live amp use for this solo. Compression likely from outboard (1176LN, LA-2A).

Difficulty

The solo demands intermediate technique, including expressive bends, vibrato, and dynamic control to achieve the smooth, sustained tone with ambient effects. Timing with delay repeats adds to the challenge.
