Studio recording, 2007. Joel O'Keeffe is confirmed to use a Gibson Explorer into a Marshall JCM800 2203 for the main riff sections of 'Runnin' Wild'. No evidence of pedal use for the riff; tone is amp-driven. No evidence of effects loop or additional studio effects on the rhythm guitar.

The riff is fast and requires tight, aggressive picking and palm muting, but uses straightforward power chords and rhythm patterns typical of hard rock, making it accessible to intermediate players.
