remtimeline.com suggests that “Disturbance” was redone due to sound issues. That said, Peter Holsapple’s guitar did sound a bit off throughout the 1st take

I’m fortunate to have some raw footage of Unplugged, & it looks like the broadcast version was the 2nd take of “Disturbance”.

I’ve just watched the 1st take, & I can’t see that Peter’s string broke at all - he even uses the same guitar on the next track too without it being looked at by Microwave.
