Notes & Caveats
- No source confirms the exact guitar model or pickup type used on the 'Stop & Stare' solo; inference based on genre and typical studio practices.
- Amp model for solo (Mesa/Boogie Mark IV) confirmed by Premier Guitar, but no specific knob settings are published; settings estimated based on typical Mark IV lead tones for modern rock.
- No explicit pedal or effect settings for this song/solo; delay and reverb inferred as audible in the solo section.
- No evidence of modulation effects (chorus, flanger, phaser) in the solo; only overdrive and delay/reverb present.
- Pickup selector position is inferred from typical solo tone, not confirmed by source.
- Settings cross-referenced with genre and era conventions for accuracy. The solo tone in 'Stop & Stare' is crunchy with a clear mid-forward presence typical of modern Texas/Red Dirt country rock, using moderate gain for sustain but not high-gain saturation. The EQ is balanced with slightly boosted mids and bass for warmth and body, while treble and presence are set to cut through without harshness. Reverb is subtle, providing space without washing out the lead.
