the warped sound you can hear on each chord in the chorus, lean *very* slightly on the whammy pedal (still set an octave down) During the solo theres a second guitar line in the background which i haven't tabbed. When they did this track on tv Matt was using a short delay to fill out the solo sound. Try something around 800ms with the feedback on minimum so you only get one repeat. ___________________________________________________
