Still battling on with this. I'm up to the final solo. Hard, but rewarding!

I always wondered why I couldn't get the tone on the Bro in Arms solo.

Then I realised- fingers....not picks.

Played through a vintage Marshall JTM as well, at a time when MK was generally using Boogies.

I thought it was a Vox?

He's a firm Tone King man now

I have it on *very* good authority that he used a Line 6 Spider 2 15watt combo. Set to crunch.
