Notes

Studio recording, 1994. Josh Homme used the Ovation Ultra GP with humbuckers through a Tube Works RT-2100 head into an Ampeg SVT-810 bass cab. No fuzz or distortion pedals; all gain from amp. No evidence of additional pedals or effects in the riff section.

Difficulty

The riff requires tight, percussive palm muting and precise timing to maintain the groove, especially with the saturated amp tone. While not technically advanced, the tone and rhythmic discipline are key.
