Notes

Studio recording, late 1970s; Pete Shelley is pictured with this guitar and amp in period-correct photos. No evidence of pedal use for clean sections. Settings estimated based on typical punk/new wave clean tones with this amp and guitar. No evidence of live-specific changes for the clean riff section.

Difficulty

The riff is rhythmically fast and requires tight, consistent downstrokes with clean articulation, but uses straightforward chord shapes and no advanced techniques.
