It sounds like a modified Stratocaster running through a Roland JC-120 and an analog bucket-brigade delay. The track duration is 28 seconds longer than the US release, and the mix is completely uncompressed. Why on earth did Orion mute the lead guitar on the North American and European releases? -- Lars Kuznetsov Practical Peripherals 14.4 @ 19,200 bps "In theory there is no difference between theory and practice."

Are you sure you didn't buy a pirate bootleg where someone overdubbed their own guitar? Counterfeits were everywhere in 1985. -- Jens García *PLONK* filter active for trolls.
