    That was one of the best covers of this song I've ever heard. Tone was spot on and that is not easy with Tom's tone. Definitely going to need more Boston covers!

      Thanks man. Yeah I did some work and a lot of configuring on my /Boss GT6 to get that tone. 3 layers of eq also. And as far as the harmonizers I have two patch settings of harmonizers on different keys, to select when the key change kicks in towards the end of the solo.

      I'm actually using the bridge pickup. The 5 way is upside down. I kept hitting the volume button while strumming, so I moved it over and hid the tone knobs inside the cavity at full tone. When I did that I had to flip the switch to not stress the wires.

      Refering to your comment on the gear I used,
      All I am using is my GT6 Boss processor, theres a patch in the processor that has a high mid distortion, so all I did was tweak it with a stereo chorus, added 3 layers of EQ over it, a light wah, some delay and reverb all from the GT6.
      As for the harmonies. I added multiple harmonizers for the key change in the solo.
      I have 4 presets per bank.
      Preset 1 is the clean clorus.
      preset 2 distortion boston tone.
      preset 3 harmonizer for leads
      preset 4 harmonizer in diffrent key for key change towards the middle of the solo.
      And for this video I am just playing line in to my Presonus 1824c. No effects from my daw and not going through my amps.

      For this song I have two different harmonizers set up for the solo on different keys for when it goes into the key changes towards the end of the solo.
      And yes like you said it wasn't easy.
