Neal Schon tracked this iconic melodic outro solo using the neck pickup with rolled-back highs for that liquid, flute-like sustain. On your Jackson JS22 Dinky's ceramic humbuckers, rolling the guitar tone knob down to 7 warms up the sharper attack to match Neal's PAF-style Les Paul neck voice. The GT-1's MS HIGAIN block pushed by a low-drive Tube Screamer provides infinite singing sustain without harsh top-end fizz. Clean rhythm parts: bypass the OD block and switch to the bridge pickup.
