Notes

Studio recording, 1986; evidence from era-specific interviews and gear rundowns. Cerati was known for using a Stratocaster and JC-120 for clean, chorus-laden tones in this period. No evidence of live/tour rig for this song differing from studio. No pedalboard photos for this exact session, but JC-120 and Strat are confirmed for this era and style.

Difficulty

The riff requires tight, syncopated strumming and precise muting to achieve the percussive, articulate sound, but does not involve advanced lead techniques or complex chord voicings.
