Notes
Studio recording for 'Bodys' (Teens of Denial, 2016). Ethan Ives used an American Telecaster into a Vox AC15 for the main riff section. No explicit evidence of additional guitars or amps for this part. No evidence of live rig or alternate gear for the studio recording.

The riff requires fast, aggressive strumming with consistent pick attack to achieve the desired breakup and energy. While not technically advanced, it demands stamina and tight timing to maintain the song's driving feel.
