Notes

Studio recording at Swamp Raga Studios for 'Let Me Get By' (2016). Derek Trucks is known for using his vintage Gibson SG with PAF pickups and a Fender Super Reverb with minimal pedals, amp cranked for natural breakup. No evidence of pedal use on this studio track. Settings estimated based on genre, era, and known rig. All info specific to studio recording, not live.

Difficulty

The riff requires intermediate slide technique, dynamic control, and accurate intonation, but does not involve advanced speed or complex chord voicings.
