Notes

Studio recording, 2018. No direct evidence for the clean section gear, but band members mention using Kemper Profilers to replicate album tones. Guitarist Doc Coyle is known to use ESP guitars with EMG pickups and Kemper for both live and studio. No evidence of a different guitar or amp for the clean solo section.
