Notes

Studio recording, 2007 (In Rainbows). All available sources and listening confirm this is a pure acoustic guitar track with no electric amp or pedals. No evidence of electric guitar or amp use in the riff section. No evidence of DI or piezo pickup in the studio version; likely miked with condenser microphones.

Difficulty

The riff section is challenging due to intricate fingerstyle picking, complex chord shapes, and subtle rhythmic shifts, demanding high accuracy and control.
