No official or credible source confirms the exact guitar or amp used for the studio riff section. The main riff is widely believed to be a synth part, but some covers and tutorials use electric guitar with clean, chorus-heavy tones. No evidence of a specific guitar or amp model used on the original studio recording. Year: 2019 (recorded for After Hours album).
