Isolated solo electric guitar only — the guitar is the only voice, there is no space for any other sound. Raw but expressive tone, not aggressive, emotionally vulnerable. Drop-D tuning. Medium distortion (enough to give sustain and warmth, not to crush the emotion). Long reverb tail, subtle delay, no room ambience. Focus on phrasing and intonation: wide vibrato, gentle bends, sliding notes, occasional pinched harmonics as emotional spikes. No rhythm, no pulse, no beat. Mood: deeply emotional, heartfelt, intense but not heavy-metal; the pain is in the phrasing, not in the volume. D minor. 70–74 BPM. Pure instrumental storytelling.
