Notes

Studio recording, 1975. No direct evidence of pedals or effects for the riff section. All evidence and classic Skynyrd interviews indicate straight Les Paul Deluxe into Marshall Plexi for main riff. No chorus, phaser, or delay audible or cited for riff. No evidence of effects loop or significant amp-based effects beyond possible light spring reverb.

Difficulty

The riff requires tight, punchy rhythm work with precise palm muting and dynamic picking, but does not involve advanced lead techniques or complex chord voicings.
