Tone Profile

The lead guitar tone is bright and jangly, with a slight overdrive that adds sustain and character without being overly distorted. It has a clear, cutting sound that blends well with the rhythm guitars, contributing to the song's signature sound.

Recording Notes

• The guitar was likely recorded with the amp in a moderately sized room to capture some natural ambience.
• A combination of close miking and room miking techniques were used.
• The Ibanez Tube Screamer provided a mild overdrive, while the TC Electronic Chorus added depth and width.

Recreation Tips

• Start with a Fender Jaguar, or similar single-coil guitar, into a Vox AC30.
• Use a light overdrive pedal like the Ibanez Tube Screamer to get the edge-of-breakup sound.
• Add a subtle chorus effect using the TC Electronic Chorus to thicken the tone.
• Experiment with microphone placement to capture the right amount of room ambience.
