Californication-Era Dry Slide — Strat Rhythm & Telecaster Fuzz
Frusciante played the main track on his maple-neck 1954 Stratocaster and switched to a 1960 Fender Custom Telecaster for the solos, recording through a Fender Showman. The first solo remained clean while a later solo used a Boss FZ-3 Fuzz; exact controls are not documented, so the settings are approximated from the confirmed chain.
