Notes

Studio recording, 2014 (album: Playland). Johnny Marr is seen using his signature Jaguar and a Fender Twin Reverb in multiple interviews and live performances from this era. Pedalboard photos and interviews confirm Boss CE-2 Chorus and Boss OD-2 Overdrive as core pedals for his riff tones. No evidence of amp distortion; overdrive is pedal-based. Settings estimated based on typical Jaguar + Twin Reverb + OD-2 setup for this genre and era.

Difficulty

The riff requires intermediate skill due to its syncopated rhythm, dynamic picking, and the need for tight muting and timing with modulation effects.
