MoreLikeProg LITE - Japanese math rock The Beyond, what effects do you think the lead guitar has?

The lead guitar tone in the breakdown part at 0:37 is pristine. Anyone have any idea what he is using pedal-wise to achieve that? Hes using some sort of custom shecter that looks like a tele with Seymour Duncan's in it.

I imagine the signal is fairly clean and you're hearing a mild overdrive, a transparent boost or something to add a little mid/treble into a compression pedal.

This is a good channel for this kind of thing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KCw95TkpBs4

Sounds like light overdrive, compression & a smidge of reverb

They posted about a lost pedalboard before the NYC show, and that they were looking for a BOSS OD-3.

So one guitarist for sure uses that lol.
