Notes

Studio recording, 2005 era. The Poison album clean tones were tracked with a Fender Cyber Twin combo using its built-in chorus and delay. Guitar is most likely an ESP LTD EC-1000 with EMG 81/85 pickups, as used by Michael Paget and Matt Tuck during this era. No evidence of pedals for clean tone; all effects from amp. Settings estimated based on typical Cyber Twin clean setup and genre. Pickup selector likely neck or neck+middle for warmth.

Difficulty

The clean riff requires accurate arpeggiated picking and smooth chord transitions, but is not technically demanding. The main challenge is maintaining clarity and dynamics with chorus and delay effects.
