Notes

Studio recording, 2005-2006. Andrew Stockdale used a '73 SG for the album, with a variety of vintage amps (Hiwatt, Marshall Plexi, Laney, Orange) patched in for different sections. Producer Dave Sardy selected amp heads per section. Pedalboard included many Boss pedals and a phaser was specifically used on the intro/riff. All info is for the studio recording, not live.

Difficulty

The riff requires tight, aggressive picking at a fast tempo, with accurate palm muting and quick chord transitions, making it moderately challenging for intermediate players.
