Notes

Studio recording, 2011. No direct evidence of specific guitar, amp, or pedal models used for the riff section of 'Feel So Close (Radio Edit)'. Calvin Harris is known for using presets and working in-the-box, and the guitar tone is likely processed via amp/cab simulation plugins or direct input with effects added in the DAW. No live rig or pedalboard evidence for this song.
