Notes

Studio recording, late 1990s (Billy Breathes era, but 'Loving Cup' first appeared live in 1993 and was officially released on 'Hampton Comes Alive' in 1999). Guitar and amp confirmed for this era by multiple rig rundowns and interviews. Clean riff section uses the Mark III's clean channel.

Difficulty

The riff requires tight rhythmic accuracy and clean articulation, but does not involve advanced techniques or fast passages. Dynamic control is important to maintain clarity and avoid unwanted breakup.
