Notes

Studio recording, 1980. Greg Ginn is documented to have used the Ampeg Dan Armstrong Plexi and Acoustic 150 amp for Black Flag's early recordings, including 'Jealous Again'. No evidence of pedal use for clean sections; all tone comes from guitar and amp. No evidence of live rig differing for this era.

Difficulty

The riff is fast and requires tight, consistent downstroke strumming with no effects to hide imperfections, but uses simple power chords and straightforward punk rhythm.
