Please feel free to mail any comments to me regarding this transcription... especially if one of you enterprising Lifeson fans wants to transcribe the solo correctly. :) The 'Alex Lifeson' Sound: I have managed to re-create (sort of) the sound that Alex uses on Marathon. Use a ballsey heavy distortion, chorus (using a triangle wave-form if you can), and either a bit of delay or reverb to get that 'studio' sound.
