Notes
Studio recording, 1993 (The Spaghetti Incident? sessions). Gilby Clarke used his modded '69 Telecaster with a PAF humbucker through a '62 Fender Deluxe amp, boosted with a Marshall Bluesbreaker pedal for added gain. No evidence of live rig or alternate guitars/amps for this section.

Difficulty
The riff requires solid rhythm playing, palm muting, and dynamic control, but does not involve advanced techniques or fast passages.
