Notes

Studio recording, 1992 (Dirt album). Jerry Cantrell used his G&L Rampage with a Seymour Duncan JB in the bridge, into a Bogner Fish preamp and VHT 2150 power amp for the main riff. No evidence of live/touring gear or alternate guitars for the studio riff section.

Difficulty

The riff requires tight, percussive palm muting and precise picking to maintain clarity and groove, but does not involve advanced lead techniques or complex chord voicings.
