Notes

Studio recording, album version of 'In Hundreds' (from Some Boots, 2004). Geoff Farina describes using a '68 Twin Reverb (blackfaced, modded for more gain) and a '70s Mustang for early Karate recordings. No explicit mention of pedals or additional effects for this song's riff section. No evidence of live rig or alternate guitars/amps for this specific recording.

Difficulty

The riff requires advanced rhythmic precision, control of dissonant intervals, and dynamic picking to achieve the aggressive, percussive attack characteristic of Karate's style.
