Notes

Studio recording, 2022. Phil Collen is primary guitarist for riff. Gear inferred from recent Premier Guitar Rig Rundown and typical Def Leppard studio practices for 'Kick'. No explicit pedalboard details for this song's riff section; most effects likely added in studio or via amp.

Difficulty

The riff requires tight palm muting and precise rhythm but uses straightforward power chords and picking, making it accessible to intermediate players.
