Notes

Studio recording, 2002. Daniel Kessler used his 1967 Epiphone Casino as his main guitar for 'Turn On The Bright Lights', including 'Obstacle 1'. The amp was a Fender Twin Reverb, with reverb provided by an Alesis Microverb in the studio rather than the amp's built-in reverb. No evidence of other guitars or amps for the riff section.

Difficulty

The riff requires tight, syncopated picking and clear note separation, but does not involve advanced techniques or high speed, making it intermediate.
