Notes

Studio recording, 1994. Jonny Greenwood used the Telecaster Plus V1 with the bridge humbucker for the solo. Amp is a Fender Eighty-Five, as confirmed for this era and album. Pedals include the Marshall Shredmaster and DigiTech Whammy WH-1. Settings for Shredmaster are from a contemporary Radiohead track ('My Iron Lung'), which used the same rig and pedals as 'Just'.

Difficulty

The solo requires fast, accurate picking and coordination with the Whammy pedal for octave-up effects, as well as precise timing and articulation, making it challenging for most intermediate players.
