Notes

Studio recording, 2007 (Minutes to Midnight sessions). No evidence of alternate guitars or amps for the clean section. All sources point to PRS Custom 24 and Mesa/Boogie Dual Rectifier as the core studio rig for Brad Delson. No explicit mention of a different amp channel or clean amp for the clean part; likely achieved by rolling back gain and using the amp's clean channel.

Difficulty

The clean riff requires precise, fast alternate picking and tight rhythm, but uses straightforward chord shapes and no advanced techniques.
