Notes

Studio recording for 'Go Your Own Way' riff section, Rumours album sessions (1976-77). Les Paul Custom used for main rhythm/riff, plugged into Fender Twin Reverb. No evidence of pedal use on riff section; chorus effect is suggested by some sources but not clearly audible in riff. Chorus pedal recommendations are for covers, not original recording. Settings from Guitar Chalk are for the riff/rhythm, not the solo.

Difficulty

The riff requires tight, percussive strumming at a brisk tempo with dynamic accents and precise muting, making it moderately challenging for intermediate players.
