Notes

Studio recording, 2016 album 'Double Dare'. No direct source confirms exact gear for 'Gloom Boys' clean riff, but genre/era/artist context and typical Waterparks setups suggest Telecaster into Fender-style clean amp. No evidence of pedal use for clean riff. No evidence of live rig differing from studio for this section.

Difficulty

The riff requires tight, clean rhythm playing with a percussive attack and dynamic control, but does not involve advanced techniques or complex chord voicings.
