I think that what you hear as an electric guitar is what's commonly called an "orchestra hit" (i.e. strings + brass + woodwinds + percussion, all together hitting a fortissimo note), overlaid with Mike's sampled/synthetic cymbal hit. This is a custom sound of his, appearing many times in Tr3s Lunas, amongst other places. On MotS, it is preceded by a flurry of equally synthetic chimes - which are part of the same sample - and the very last note is the cymbal hit. There's also orchestral percussion (a bass drum, timpani, orchestral cymbals, tubular bells ), but the sampled cymbal sound is, I think, the most prominent. That's pretty much the only electronic (if not really electric...) sound in the whole of MotS. ![;)](/forums/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif)
This sound does not appear (rather obviously! ) in the Bilbao live rendition.
