Notes

Studio recording, 2009-2010. Gear based on Slash's known studio setup for the 'Slash' solo album. Appetite Les Paul and Marshall AFD100 are modern recreations of the original Derrig Les Paul and SIR #34 JCM800 used on Appetite for Destruction, which Slash has stated were used as reference for his solo album tones. No evidence of live rig or alternate guitars for this song's riff section.

Difficulty

The riff requires fast, accurate alternate picking with tight palm muting and precise rhythm at a high tempo, making it challenging for most intermediate players.
