Notes & Caveats
- Specific amp settings are based on user-generated content and may not reflect the exact studio settings used by Greg Gonzalez.
- Exact pickup selector position is inferred based on typical tone characteristics and may not be accurate.
- Settings cross-referenced with genre and era conventions for accuracy. Cigarettes After Sex is known for their dreamy, ambient soundscapes. The solo in 'Apocalypse' features a warm, slightly overdriven tone with a lush reverb, typical of their style, which aligns with a gain setting at the edge of breakup and a prominent reverb.
