Notes
Studio recording, 2025. Jake Kiszka used the ES-335 12-string for the riff section of 'Fortune’s Fate' and plugged into a Marshall-based amp, pushing the amp for drive with minimal pedal use. No evidence of live-specific changes for this section.

Difficulty
The riff is moderately challenging due to the 12-string electric's doubled strings, requiring careful picking and fretting for clarity, and classic rock riffing with tight timing and articulation.
