Notes

Studio recording, 2000 (Significant Other/Chocolate Starfish era). Wes Borland is known for using the Ibanez UV7 and Roland JC-120 for the main riff sections of 'My Generation.' No evidence of live/touring gear or alternate amps for this specific studio recording. No explicit pedal use for the riff section; whammy bar and harmonics are a key part of the sound.

Difficulty

The riff requires advanced control of harmonics, creative whammy bar use, and tight, aggressive rhythm playing, making it challenging for most intermediate players.
