Notes
Live performance at Wembley Stadium, August 31, 1991. Slash's main live rig for Use Your Illusion tour. Settings and pedals based on live rig rundowns and period-correct sources; no evidence of alternate guitars for the riff section. Studio vs. live differences noted in sources.

Difficulty
The riff requires solid timing, dynamic control, and clean chord changes, but does not involve advanced techniques or high speed, making it accessible to intermediate players.
