Notes
Studio recording, 1980 (Seventeen Seconds album). Robert Smith is known to have used a Fender Jazzmaster and Roland JC-120 for the signature clean, chorus-heavy Cure sound in this era. No evidence of alternate guitars or amps for this specific riff section in studio. All Boss pedals were common in this period, but only chorus is confirmed for this song/section.
