Notes
Studio recording, 1992-1993, as used on the 'Core' album. Dean DeLeo is known to use a Schecter PT with single coils into a Fender Twin Reverb for clean tones in the studio. No evidence of live/touring gear or alternate guitars for the clean riff section.

The riff requires tight rhythm and muting, clean chord changes, and precise timing to maintain the groove, but does not involve advanced techniques or fast playing.
