I think the solo on the recording is mostly fuzz factory squeals that can't really be tabbed, maybe this should be replaced by a tab for the solo Matt usually plays live (i.e. on Hullabaloo)? Dyingatheist 20:24, 6 August 2009 (UTC)
- No, it's not a fuzz, it's a lot of bends, and at the end he uses a whammy pedal. -frozenjakalope 22:26, 6 August 2009 (BST)
- I'm not so sure, it really sounds like a lot of the sounds are being made using the compression and stability controls on the Fuzz Factory, especially the parts with long glissandos and the section where it goes high and cuts out briefly, which wouldn't be the case with a Whammy pedal. That part's pretty obviously done using the stability control, and the nasally, fuzzy tone and note continuity strongly suggest Fuzz Factory self-oscillation. There are a few parts that are played on guitar (like between 4:13 and 4:20 or so), but the majority sounds like it's done using the Fuzz Factory knobs (compare for example with the guitar part played along with the Drum and Bass jam at TCT 2008). --Dyingatheist 22:42, 6 August 2009 (UTC)
- I see your point, but I still don't think it's a Fuzz Factory. To me, from 4:13, it sounds like he does a series of tremolo notes, then slams on the whammy, mutes the string, does a few more bends, then there's that series of four notes, where he holds the last bend, then the whammy just goes on-off-on-off and then it's the chorus. -frozenjakalope 23:50, 6 August 2009 (BST)
