Notes

Studio recording, original version from 'Billy Breathes' (1996); gear based on era-correct rig and known studio/live setups for this song. No direct source confirms exact pedalboard for this recording, but Univibe/chorus is strongly suggested by both sources and audio. No evidence of additional pedals in riff section.

Difficulty

The riff requires intermediate skill due to syncopated rhythm, clean chord voicings with modulation, and dynamic control for groove.
