Notes

Live performance at Pompeii, 1971/1972, as seen in video and confirmed by multiple sources. Clean riff sections use the Stratocaster middle pickup into a Hiwatt DR103, with Binson Echorec delay. No fuzz or heavy gain for clean riff. Settings estimated from era-typical Hiwatt clean setup and Gilmour's known approach for clean sections.

Difficulty

The clean riff requires intermediate skill due to the need for dynamic control, accurate picking, and synchronizing with the Binson Echorec's rhythmic repeats.
