Notes
Live performance, Earls Court 1995; settings and gear are for live, not studio. Noel is confirmed to use the Sheraton and JCM900 for this era and show. No pedalboard photos from this exact gig, but TS9 and DD-3 are widely documented in his live rig for this period.

Difficulty
The riff is based on fast, aggressive strumming of open chords at high volume, requiring tight timing and dynamic control, but no advanced techniques or complex voicings.
