Notes

Studio recording for 'Safari Song' (2017, From The Fires EP). Jake Kiszka is confirmed to use a 1961 Gibson Les Paul SG Standard with PAF humbuckers. Marshall DSL100H is seen in use, but interviews confirm Marshall Astoria Custom CME and Vox AC30 were also used on the album. For the riff, evidence points to Marshall DSL or Astoria. Minimal pedals, focus on amp gain. Holy Grail Nano reverb pedal used for reverb as amps lack built-in reverb.

Difficulty

The riff requires intermediate skill due to its syncopated rhythm, dynamic pick attack, and need for tight muting and articulation to achieve the classic rock crunch.
