Notes
Studio recording, original 1970s release. No direct evidence for exact gear, but era, genre, and band history strongly suggest Les Paul + Marshall setup. No evidence of pedals or effects beyond amp reverb.

The riff requires solid rhythm skills and dynamic picking but is not technically advanced. Some syncopation and barre chord changes add moderate challenge.
