Notes & Caveats

  • ⚠️No direct source confirms exact gear or settings for 'Noche de Perros (En Vivo)' solo; all gear and settings are estimated based on period-correct live photos, genre, and era.
  • ⚠️No pedalboard or effect pedal is visible or audibly obvious in the solo section; no evidence of delay, chorus, flanger, or wah in this solo.
  • ⚠️Amp and guitar models are inferred from David Lebón's known live rig in the early 1980s and typical Argentine rock setups.
  • ⚠️Settings are estimated based on typical Marshall JCM800 usage for classic rock lead tones in live settings.
  • ⚠️If further evidence (photos, interviews, or video) emerges, update with confirmed gear and settings.
  • ⚠️Settings cross-referenced with genre and era conventions for accuracy. David Lebón's solo tone in 'Noche de Perros (En Vivo)' is classic blues-rock with a warm, mid-forward, singing sustain typical of late 70s/early 80s Argentinian rock. He favored Marshalls or Fender amps set for edge-of-breakup to crunchy drive, with pronounced mids and a touch of reverb for space, but not excessive brightness or gain.
