Notes
Studio recording, 1978. Waylon's signature Telecaster with leather cover, plugged into a Fender Twin Reverb. Phaser effect is a hallmark of his studio sound in this era. No evidence of other pedals for the clean riff section.

The riff requires clean, articulate picking with tight rhythm and dynamic control, but does not involve advanced lead techniques or fast passages.
