Recording Notes

• The guitar was likely recorded with a close-mic'd amplifier and blended with a direct input signal.
• The chorus effect is prominent, suggesting the use of a Boss CE-1 or similar chorus pedal.
• Slight overdrive was added to give the guitar some bite without losing clarity.

Recreation Tips

• Start with a clean Fender Stratocaster tone, using the bridge or middle pickup for brightness.
• Add a subtle chorus effect using a Boss CE-1 or similar pedal. Set the rate and depth to create a shimmering effect without sounding too seasick.
• Introduce a touch of overdrive using an Ibanez Tube Screamer or similar pedal. Keep the drive low to maintain clarity.
• Use a compressor to even out the dynamics and add sustain.
• EQ the signal to brighten the high frequencies and add air.
