Notes
Studio recording, 2006 (The Black Parade sessions). Ray Toro used the Les Paul Custom into a Fender Deluxe Reverb for clean tones. Frank Iero's clean tones are sometimes layered, but main riff clean is Ray Toro. No evidence of live-specific gear or alternate guitars for this section.

The riff requires accurate clean picking and dynamic control to maintain clarity and articulation, but does not involve advanced techniques or fast runs.
