Showbiz-Era Piano Shadow — Chorus Crunch & Whammy Solo
The song’s defining arpeggio was moved from guitar to piano during production, leaving the electric guitar to provide tense distorted accents and a pitch-shifted solo. The exact recording guitar, amplifier and knob positions are not documented, so these settings approximate Bellamy’s early Gibson, Marshall/Vox and DigiTech Whammy rig.
