Notes

Live performance at Folsom Field, Boulder, CO, July 3, 2023. Gear based on John Mayer's 2023 Dead & Company live rig for rhythm/riff sections. No direct source confirms pedalboard specifics for this exact show, but PRS Silver Sky and Two Rock Custom Reverb are consistent with Mayer's 2023 Dead & Company rig for 'Althea' riff sections.

Difficulty

The riff requires intermediate-level technique due to syncopated chord shapes, dynamic control for clean articulation, and subtle muting to maintain clarity in a live mix.
