Notes

Studio recording, 1994. Buckley used a rented Fender Vibroverb '63 Reissue from S.I.R. Studios for the 'Grace' album sessions. The Telecaster is known for a slightly out-of-phase, glassy sound due to wiring quirks. No evidence of other guitars or amps for the clean riff section.

Difficulty

The riff requires advanced chord shapes, nuanced right-hand dynamics, and precise articulation to maintain clarity and shimmer in a clean setting, making it challenging for most players.
