Notes

Studio recording, 2005. All sources and tutorials confirm Jack Johnson used a Cole Clark Fat Lady 2 acoustic guitar for the riff/verse sections of 'Banana Pancakes.' No electric guitar or amp was used; the guitar was either mic'd or recorded direct with its onboard pickup system. No pedals or external effects are mentioned or audible except for possible subtle studio reverb.

Difficulty

The riff requires intermediate fingerstyle technique, precise muting, and smooth transitions between chords and percussive elements, making it moderately challenging for most players.
