Notes

Studio recording for '...Like Clockwork' (2013); Josh Homme is known for using the Gibson Marauder and Greedtone JHI-100 in the studio for this album. No direct evidence of live substitutions for the riff section. Peavey Decade and other odd amps are sometimes used by Homme, but Greedtone is the only one directly tied to this album's recording.

Difficulty

The riff requires tight, syncopated rhythm playing with precise palm muting and dynamic control, making it moderately challenging for intermediate players.
