Does anyone who's musically inclined have any suggestions about what's going on with the second guitar during the first guitar solo? I've been trying to learn it but it's obviously difficult to decipher much.

Tried to experiment with panning and some effects in Audacity to make it more audible but the results were less than useful.

It's probably all improvised but maybe there's a certain scale or motif that Adam uses during this solo?

It's the same notes and scales used as the first guitar played with a bunch of effects layered to cut out the low end and add a ring modulation.

Interesting, that's definitely seems to be true about the parts 4:49-4:58 and 5:34-5:45 of the solo atleast. In some of the crazier parts that's buried in the mix, improvised shredding in D locrian sounds pretty good to me. Or maybe he's just playing some atonal or chromatic nonsense, it's hard to tell.
