question 4 electric guitarists regarding alexa de paris lead guitar sound

hi,

just looking for advice on what equipment would be recommended to use to approximate the tone made by lead guitar on the alexa de paris recording. yer talkin to an electric guitar novice here, so feel free to break it down into the most illustrative detailed terms possible. would like to know the most budget-friendly options for the guitar itself as well as whatever other equipment may be needed.

many thanks,

cool

a Peavey VTM amp, pedalboard containing: vibrato, delay, flanger, octave, super overdrive, power supply/master switch and a colorsound wah pedal. in that order. play with the settings on the overdrive and amp. and a guitar with emg pickups i'm assuming.
