Recording Notes

• The guitar was likely recorded with a close-mic'd amplifier in a controlled studio environment.
• Compression was used to even out the dynamics and increase sustain.
• Subtle chorus effect adds a layer of depth and spaciousness to the clean tone.

Recreation Tips

• Start with a Fender Stratocaster-style guitar with single-coil pickups.
• Use a clean amp setting with moderate gain, such as a Music Man HD 130.
• Add a compressor (MXR Dyna Comp) with a moderate amount of compression to increase sustain and even out the dynamics.
• Apply a subtle chorus effect (TC Electronic Chorus/Flanger) to add depth and spaciousness.
• Experiment with microphone placement on the amp to capture the desired tone.
