Notes

Studio recording, 1992-1993. Gear confirmed by producer Stephen Street and Noel Hogan in interviews. Chorus pedal (DOD FX68 Super Stereo Chorus) used for signature sound. Vox AC30 mentioned as also used on the album, but Twin Reverb is specifically cited for 'Linger' riff. Acoustic guitar part was a Yamaha acoustic (not relevant for electric riff section).

Difficulty

The riff requires clean, even picking and chord changes with a focus on clarity and timing, but does not involve complex techniques or fast passages.
